The Government Department or agency preparing a regulatory impact statement (RIS) is required to provide notice of its publication in the Government Gazette and in a daily newspaper with wide circulation in Victoria. This notice must specify where copies of the RIS and the proposed subordinate legislation can be obtained. A copy of the RIS is also usually listed on the Department or agency’s website or the Engage Victoria website.
Better Regulation Victoria (BRV) also publishes RISs along with the Commissioner's independent assessment of their adequacy on this website. This includes RISs and assessment letters completed prior to 21 September 2015, which were assessed by the former Victorian Competition and Efficiency Commission.
Final Regulations are published on the Victorian Legislation and Parliamentary documents website.
If you are looking for a particular RIS, or for one completed before 2011, please contact us at contact@betterreg.vic.gov.au.
