Today’s Challenges in Relation to Rulemaking: Improving Legislative Logic and Strategy
Congress Centre, Justice Quarter. Conference hall E12
Today’s world is changing at a rapid rate, which in turn is giving rise to new challenges. It is an inevitable fact that finding quick responses to these challenges will be essential. In this context, legal stipulations need to be developed and adopted in a manner that ensures a high degree of quality. This means the logic and strategies underpinning legislative activity need to be reworked, with an eye on strictly observing national security interests, among other things. What can be done to preserve the systemic nature of legal regulation? In the face of time pressure, what strategic objectives should be prioritized? What should be done in terms of the requirement to make motivated amendments to legislation as the single method of addressing a problem? What steps need to be taken to improve interaction between all members of the legislative process? What is needed to train the personnel required to perform this work? What should be done to ensure that the necessary information and analytical support is provided?
