Summary: | Business inspections reform is part of a
broader set of products and approaches the World Bank Group
Investment Climate Advisory Services uses to improve
business regulations, in particular relating to start-up and
operation. These products cover such complementary issues as
business registration and start-up procedures, licensing and
permit practices, inspection procedures, and enforcement.
This handbook should take its place alongside the World Bank
Group’s (WBG) 2009 guide on How To Reform Business Licenses.
It aims to provide would-be reformers, inside and outside of
the WBG, with a comprehensive range of tools that enable
them to tackle all essential aspects of regulatory
simplification and smarter regulation. It also builds on
earlier work the WBG has done on inspections reform,
particularly on a number of reform projects the WBG has
worked on since the late 1990s, and on a set of knowledge
management publications the WBG has produced, most
importantly the toolkit Good Practices for Business
Inspections, Guidelines for Reformers (2006). Other
important WBG publications on inspections reform include
sets of case studies and overviews of country experiences
(in particular a review of international experience
published in 2005), a manual on checklist development
(2009), and a note on assessment tools for inspections
(2009). To keep reformers abreast of the latest developments
in good practice, this handbook should be followed up by
further reviews of international experience. |
