The commitment in the Programme for Government is "to instigate a review of the entire economic regulatory environment." The purpose of the review is to ensure that "the existing regulatory regime is operating efficiently, is balancing the needs of users with the requirements of producers and is not imposing excessive costs on the economy." The details of how it is intended to conduct this proposed review are currently being considered and further detailed information will be provided to the Dáil on the implementation arrangements in due course.
