Harvard Report Details Improvements for E-Reg Initiatives

Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government’s report: E-Rulemaking: Information Technology and Regulation Policy (80 pages, PDF)

  • “In order to ensure that the growing interest in e-rulemaking leads to effective and meaningful innovations, new computer technologies will need to be appropriately integrated into the institutional design of the federal regulatory process. Decisions about the design and implementation of new technologies will therefore need to take into account the legal, political, and managerial dimensions of the rulemaking process. In addition, to take full advantage of new technologies, existing institutional structures and rulemaking practices may themselves need to be reconfigured. For these reasons, effective deployment of information to assist with govern-ment rulemaking will require an integration of both technological and institutional analysis.”
