Norm Control Council Calls for Practical Checks on New Laws to Cut Bureaucracy
The Norm Control Council, led by chairman Lutz Goebel, has issued a report calling for significant changes in the current approach to reducing bureaucracy. The 2025 annual report highlights the need for more practical checks on new laws to make them easier to implement and reduce administrative burdens.
Goebel, head of the German Nationaler Normenkontrollrat (NKR), stresses the importance of early practical testing of planned regulations. This proactive approach aims to identify and address potential issues before new laws come into effect. The council believes this will not only streamline the implementation process but also reduce the overall administrative burden on businesses and citizens.
The Norm Control Council's recommendations underscore the need for a more pragmatic and forward-thinking approach to lawmaking. By implementing early practical checks and testing, the council aims to create a more efficient and less bureaucratic environment for all.
