What’s in it?
The relationship between regulating and regulated entities is important in ensuring that safety is not subordinated to other concerns and in maintaining public confidence. As a result, the brief addresses various pressures and trade-offs inherent in that relationship, trade-offs between such considerations as:
- cost of the oversight activity and its effectiveness;
- regulator independence and its level of competency and understanding of the risks involved;
- ability to provide advice on meeting regulatory goals and being able to criticize decisions made; and
- effectiveness and intrusion in operational activities.
The contributors show how, over time, a more horizontal or “decentred” approach to regulatory oversight has appeared, with a larger degree of delegation of certain decisions to industry and a greater role for a range of third parties such as certification bodies, auditors, insurers, industry associations and NGOs.
