French president announces legal programme for "quality of norms"

On 16 January, President Sarkozy, speaking at a New Year function for magistrates, annouced a major "legal effort" for the improvement of the quality of norms, similar to the general review of public policies which has been conducted since 2007. The multi-annual programme, to be prepared by the Prime minister, would be spearheaded at the highest level by the Government. This is in keeping with the widely held view in France that the main issue is the excessive number of regulations, requiring a legal approach.
