Regulatory Reform

In 2001, government committed to reduce the overall regulatory burden in B.C. by one-third to be consistent with global trends in regulatory reform and management. That target has been met, and the Ministry of Health will contribute to government’s intention to maintain a zero per cent increase to the baseline regulatory count throughout the next three fiscal years. The ministry will continue to identify regulatory reduction and reform opportunities, and focus on improving regulations to ensure they are consistently results-based, cost-effective, flexible and promote competitiveness and innovation.
