Moving ahead on the agile regulatory governance agenda
This policy paper aims to help governments develop regulatory experimentation constructively
and appropriately as part of their implementation of the 2021 OECD Recommendation
for Agile Regulatory Governance to Harness Innovation. Regulatory experimentation
can help promote adaptive learning and innovative and better-informed regulatory policies
and practices. This policy paper examines key concepts, definitions and constitutive
elements of regulatory experimentation. It outlines the rationale for using regulatory
experimentation, discusses enabling factors and governance requirements, and presents
a set of forward-looking conclusions.
