Submission to the Taskforce on Reducing Regulatory Burdens on Business
12 December 2005
The problems of over-regulation could only be solved by long-term systemic changes and not quick fixes.
The comments were outlined in the BCA’s submission to the federal government’s Taskforce on Reducing Regulatory Burdens on Business, which was established to address Australia’s regulatory blow-out.
BCA Chief Executive, Ms Katie Lahey, said that while the BCA supported the work of the government’s taskforce, the only lasting solution to fixing the blow-out would be fundamental changes to the way red tape is generated.
