Interdisciplinary conference on RIA: 10 June, Paris

Our friend and high expert A. Alemanno announces that an International Conference on "Theory and Practice of Regulatory Impact Assessments in Europe: A Comparative and Interdisciplinary Perspective" will take place on Monday 10 June 2013 from 12 noon at the Ecole Nationale d'Administration (ENA.) Organised by the UCL Centre for Law, Economics and Society, "the main goal of this conference is to portray and analyze the development of the use of Impact Assessments throughout the European Union and its member States as a standard of good governance and, in some cases, as a legal standard which imposes constraints on the administrative action, regulatory or legislative actions." The conference will also be an opportunity to present the first empirical results of the joint project of Ecole Nationale d’Administration (ENA) Gutenberg chair and the Centre for Law, Economics and Society (CLES) at University College London (UCL) on Regulatory Impact Assessments in Europe. For more information on this project, headed by Dr. Ioannis Lianos (Director, CLES/Gutenberg chair at the ENA) you may check here. Alberto will be speaking in Panel 3 devoted to Impact Assessment and its Actors. The key note speech will be given by the newly-appointed, yet not confirmed, Obama's regulatory tsar: Howard Shelanski.
