#trump #OIRA #redtape #OneInTwoOut "The first substantive question Ms. Rao faced during a Senate confirmation hearing last month struck at a hot topic on Capitol Hill: How did she view an order by Mr. Trump to eliminate two regulations for every new one, and how should it be carried out? As she answered, Ms. Rao measured her words, calling the policy “an important step” in broadly reducing regulatory burden. “It can work,” she said. “The way I think it will work in practice is that agencies will identify regulations to eliminate. And those regulations might be ineffective ones or excessively burdensome. And those regulations will have to meet a cost-benefit analysis for deregulation before they’re going to impose any new regulatory burdens.” As her testimony continued, she went so far as to give Democrats a nod that her cost-benefit analysis would go beyond simply calculating financial costs to industry — agreeing that non-monetary benefits, to health and the environment, for example, “can play a role.” https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/09/business/the-scholar-who-will-help-lead-trumps-assault-on-rules.html

#trump #deregulation The president may not have repealed Obamacare or passed tax reform, but he has overseen, as he promised, a historic slowdown in rule-writing by federal agencies. Since Mr Trump’s inauguration, the flow of new rules has slowed by about 60%. Is this an achievement to be proud of? The number of rules is a crude gauge of the burden of red tape. But it belies a much deeper shift in regulatory philosophy. The Trump administration claims that it will no longer use regulations as a substitute for legislation; that the effects of new rules will be more rigorously assessed; and that the burden on business will be reduced.  https://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21730148-donald-trumps-regulatory-policy-strange-mix-thoughtful-and-dangerous-how-judge-whether?

#food #Trump The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration are in a rare public dust-up concerning oversight of an obscure group that helps determine international food standards. The FDA and former USDA officials have expressed concern that the move will put business interests ahead of food safety and could hurt the U.S.’s ability to exert influence abroad. The fight relates to the Codex Alimentarius Commission, an international consortium of more than 180 countries that, collectively, writes international food safety standards. These standards serve various purposes, including acting as a policy handbook for countries that lack expertise in food safety, and encouraging trade by setting universal rules and helping to settle trade disputes. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/a-food-fight-has-broken-out-between-the-usda-and-fda/

#Trump #OIXO This week, the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs released a status report on agencies’ progress on regulations. In only its first 10 months, the Trump administration has far exceeded its promise to eliminate two existing regulations for each new one—an unprecedented advance against the regulatory state. https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-trump-regulatory-game-plan-1513210177

#Trump #WEF President Donald Trump and members of his administration had dinner with the heads of 15 European companies during his trip to the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland.

#trump #deregulation President Trump ended the year with 68,082 pages in the Federal Register, which is the nation's rulebook. That's quite low by recent standards, but marks a 10% gain from the end of last year, when the total pages in the register totaled just 61,308 pages, the lowest since 1993. https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/regulations-trump-2019/

#OIXO #reduction #OECD #US #Trump Одним из новых инструментов регуляторики в последние 7-8 лет является правило "один за один/два/множество" для вводимых актов (и одновременной отмены действовавших, одного или множества). В России правило '1х1' было введено в 2015, но работает слабо. В новом обзоре ОЭСР представлены первые результаты внедрения в ряде стран, наибольшую динамику демонстрирует США за последний год ('1х2' было предвыборным обещанием Трампа): де-факто 4 -кратный offsetting, 23 млрд. долларов снижения издержек.👇👇
