  1. RIA: Why it is useful for countries in transition Daniel Trnka The Office of the Government Czech Republic

  2. Regulatory Reform inTransition Countries • Transforming the country • totalitarian democracy • centrally controlled market oriented • EU Accession • Massive rebuilding of the legal system

  3. Do we need more reforms? • A lot of new acts means a lot of new mess • Quality regulation : • helps to democratise country • supports competition • contributes to the GDP growth

  4. Common Problems of Transition Countries • Underestimation of modern management methods • Lack of horizontal co-operation, resortism, lack of co-ordination • Preference of legal solutions • Concentration on legal problems • Lack of public involvement • Lack of impact assessment

  5. How can RIA help to solve these problems • Helps (forces) departments to collaborate (team-work) • Involves co-ordination • Supports alternative solutions • Concentrates on contentual quality and assesses impacts • Helps to involve public, unions, professional associations, consumers

  6. What you will hear • What the heck is RIA? • Will ministers’ decision-making powers be cut? • Will public servants have to work (even) harder? • How are you going to quantify impacts precisely?

  7. What you should answer • Explain, explain, explain • No!!! It is going to help them to make decision • Yes and no, they will have guidelines, lot of work will be done by others • The importance is in trying to do so

  8. „Czech“ out our experience and intents • Presuming ministers • Involving unions, business associations, academics • Starting slowly • Pilot project • Differentiation of regulation • Show results

  9. RIA is not a panacea, but it can surely help to keep the high regulatory quality during and also after the transformation.
