|HC proposes  to develop a framework by which to obtain the costs of collection of  Canadian’s willingness to pay for the benefits of regulations to obtain  additional valuable data for cost-benefit analysis. In preparing complex  regulations it is often easier to collect and monetize the costs to regulated  parties than the benefits to the public.

|IAAC  proposes to utilize an experienced senior analyst to conduct an effective cost  benefit analysis as part of the development of Cost Recovery Regulations. The  resource would involve and train ~ three IAAC staff from the Legislative and  Regulatory Affairs Division while the CBA is being conducted. This will allow  agency staff to learn how to conduct CBAs for future regulatory initiatives  as well as those currently underway.
