We are a network of independent European advisory and oversight bodies that play a significant role in scrutiny of the impacts of new legislation. On the national level, we advise and challenge our governments on various aspects of better regulation and on the overall regulatory burden. On the international level, we collaborate in order to:
Advocate for Better Regulation
We aim to strengthen the European Union’s approach to better regulation.
Promote Independent Scrutiny
We seek to inform other countries on the added value of independent scrutiny of impact assessments.
Share the Best Practices
We strive to strengthen our own expertise by exchanging knowledge and sharing best practice.
