Impact Analysis Statements
Under The Queensland Government Better Regulation Policy (the policy), RSHQ must publish all Impact Analysis Statements (IAS) for regulatory proposals on the RSHQ website following final approval by the relevant decision-making body.
The policy outlines the Queensland Government requirements for the development and review of regulations and an IAS is an assessment of a regulatory proposal.
Prior to the introduction of IAS in September 2023, regulatory impact statements undertaken by RSHQ were published by the Office of Best Practice Regulation. These past statements are available on the Queensland Treasury website.
