Details

The Brexit transition period has ended and new rules now apply. This guidance is currently out of date.

This guidance is for government officials. If you are developing or implementing policies that will regulate or deregulate business or civil society organisations, the guidance explains how you need to comply with the regulatory framework. It replaces the ‘Better regulation framework manual’, which may be referenced in other documents.

Once the government announces the new Business Impact Target for this Parliament we will publish the final version of this guidance.
