Reforming Regulations for Economic Growth and Innovation
The government wants businesses to do well.
To help, the government needs to make sure the regulations are fair and the regulatory bodies have good people, are fair, and work together.
This means regulators should hire the right experts, have clear rules, and work with other regulatory bodies.
The goal is to help businesses grow and the economy improve.
Government aims to foster economic growth by reducing intervention and promoting competition.
The 2025-26 Budget emphasized a light-touch regulatory framework.
A high-level committee on non-financial regulatory reforms has been established.
Key areas for improvement include recruitment, ethical standards, and coordination of regulatory bodies.
The balance between government and regulator relations is critical for efficiency.
