Print & Online News (REGULATION AND POLICY)
These are the Print and Online news entries related to Regulations and Policy. Government jurisdictions drive regulation by the creation of policies designed to obtain certain results. Often, incentives (inducements or penalties) are offered to achieve the desired result. 
The simplest un-contested regulation on a two-lane highway would be that one always drives on the right side of the centerline. Anything beyond that is often open to debate that is sometimes perpetual. Please enjoy this page with its examples of REGULATION AND POLICY.
