Best-Practice Regulatory Principles for the Adoption of Standards

This report gives advice to help Australia and New Zealand use standards better in law and policy. It says standards should be easy to update and work the same across both countries. And standards should match what is widely available overseas where practical. This helps people get safer, cheaper, and better products faster.

Note: Chapter 6 of this report mentions 3 standards mapping projects. The author finalised this report before Standards Australia finished those 3 projects. You can read the final versions of those project reports on the Standards Australia’s website.
