The consultation ran from 6 August 2008 to 12 November 2008. 74 responses were received from representatives from the business community, small and medium enterprises, and national regulators.
The Government has decided not to implement a system of regulatory budgets at this stage. A statement was made to Parliament on 2 April 2009. Click here.
