 Articles - Business::Compliance and Regulation
Following the fallout from major corporate crashes such as Enron and Worldcom, stricter compliance legislation has been introduced around the world to ensure that business managers and principals are more accountable for their actions.
Therefore, it is important that the business examines all regulations, not just those affecting their specific area of operation, but also generic legislation affecting general business activities.
This is particularly important to ensure compliance with legislation such as the Sarbanes Oxley Act, which applies to US companies and their foreign subsidiaries; and in the UK, the Data Protection Act and the Freedom of Information Act.

 Grandfather Government Regulation Cost Report - summary by MWHodges
Government mandated regulatory compliance costs are huge amounts: as much as all spending by state and local governments (education, police, welfare, etc.), or twice as much as social security and Medicare spending, or 3 times more than national defense.
Milton Friedman, in various letters to this author, continually stressed the importance of studying this critical area of regulatory compliance costs.
The larger the section of the economy that is consumed by government spending, and the higher the regulatory costs mandated, the smaller the effective share of the economic pie remaining to the 'free-market private' sector.

 CIWM - Landfill Regulations - Compliance/Regulation
Waste producers make the initial decisions about the management of their waste and are often in the best position to either treat the waste or secure its treatment by others.
Section 34 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 requires waste holders, inter-alia, to prevent any contravention of Section 33 (unauthorised disposal) EPA or of Regulation 9 of the 2000 Regulations, and also to ensure that a written description is transferred such as to enable other persons to avoid such contravention.
As it will be an offence to accept untreated waste (unless the qualifiers apply), then section 34 (1)(a) effectively puts the duty on a waste holder to take all reasonable steps to ensure that their waste is not landfilled untreated.

 Amazon.co.uk: Regulation and Compliance in Operations (Securities Institute Operations Management S.): Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Although many view regulation as being about rooting out rogue traders and controlling speculators, its role is much more profound than this, and without it many more 'scandals' would undoubtedly occur.
The problem for the regulator is that unless total oversight of every transaction, account, business and individual can be made, there will always be rogue traders or more recent examples like Enron and World.Com.
As such intense oversight is not practical, the regulator can only do so much, with most of the responsibility resting with the firms and organizations themselves.
