Abstract
This paper sets out the background and operation of the compliance cost assessment (CCA) procedure currently used in British Government and the objectives of a research project which aims to investigate it. A product of the general drive to deregulate, CCAs are designed to assess the potential impact on business costs of proposed regulations. The article outlines an initial set of questions which relate both to the philosophy and intended purpose of the CCA initiative generally and also to more detailed issues of how the cost assessments themselves are arrived at.
