22995 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Finance: How, if at all, does the Minister believe that the passage of a Regulatory Standards Bill would affect the quality of regulation and outcomes within their portfolio area?

Hon Nicola Willis: The Regulatory Standards Bill is intended to increase the quality of regulation by increasing transparency and making it clearer where legislation does not meet the principles of responsible regulation, enabling New Zealanders to spend less time on compliance and more time on productive activities.
