Regulation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A regulation is a form of secondary legislation which is used to implement a primary piece of legislation appropriately, or to take account of particular circumstances or factors emerging during the gradual implementation of, or during the period of, a primary piece of legislation. Regulation mandated by the government or state attempts to produce outcomes which might not otherwise occur, produce or prevent outcomes in different places to what might otherwise occur, or produce or prevent outcomes in different timescales than would otherwise occur. EU regulation has a general scope, and is obligatory in all its elements and directly applicable in all Member States of the European Union. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Regulation   (812 words)

REGULATION In feedback regulation (or control as it is technically referred to), an error signal is produced between the existing state of a system and the desired regulated level. In dynamic regulation, two different switch states (an "on" and an "off" state) are arranged so that the system switches from one state to the other when the regulated parameter rises to an upper limit (an on-off thermostat). Regulation does not imply learning, adaptation (see ultra-stability, control) or intelligence. pespmc1.vub.ac.be /ASC/REGULATION.html   (306 words)

SIGGS Theory Model: Regulation Regulation takes the viewpoint of the educational negasystem, and is the adjustment or restriction of fromput. Regulation monitors what becomes fromput, and what is therefore eligible to become output. If educational system size increases and complexity growth is constant, then regulation increases to some value and then decreases. www.indiana.edu /~educr547/frick/regulatn.html   (463 words)

I - Insulin Regulation Sometimes, in early regulation of insulin levels it isn't possible to be that patient as glucose levels skyrocket or hypoglycemia occurs. One common mistake with insulin regulation is too frequently changing the insulin dose -- "chasing the glucose level". Urine glucose monitoring is not adequate, alone, for regulating insulin, in the opinion of most of the endocrinologists I have spoken with or whose information I have read. www.vetinfo.com /dencyclopedia/deinsulinr.html   (621 words)

RealCorporateLawyer.com Regulation FD Regulation FD is not meant to change anything about the substance of disclosure itself, but it may indirectly impact the types of information that companies voluntarily decide to disclose, when to disclose particular information, and how to disclose it. Regulation FD was supported by the vast majority of a record volume of comment letters (over 6,000), most of which were sent by e-mail from retail investors. Regulation FD does not apply to companies that are private or going public, and therefore, venture capitalists face these issues only if they remain on the board after the company goes public. www.realcorporatelawyer.com /faqs/regulationfd.html   (13532 words)

George Bush's Hidden Tax: The Explosion in Regulation But since environmental and workplace safety regulations can have a decisive impact on a steel plant's profitability, it is not surprising that investment in modern equipment by American steel producers faltered in the 1970s relative to that undertaken by their foreign competitors. When examining regulations, policy makers must take account of their full costs and impact if they are to determine whether the regulations help or harm the public. In these, as in many other cases of well-meaning regulation that imposes costs on a family, it is mainly the poor who suffer the unintended side effects, because poorer families cannot afford to pay the extra money for such things as larger, heavier cars or another airline seat. www.heritage.org /Research/Regulation/BG905.cfm   (7878 words)

EPA Regulation of Biotechnology In these rules, the Agency has determined that, in regulating plant-incorporated protectants, the new protein and its genetic material are regulated by EPA; the plant itself is not regulated. With regard to biotechnology, EPA's jurisdiction under FIFRA covers regulation of the new substance and DNA in the plant when it is pesticidal in nature. USDA's regulatory jurisdiction includes the regulation of herbicide-tolerant crops, which do not fall under EPA's jurisdiction because these crops do not produce pesticides. epa.gov /pesticides/biopesticides/reg_of_biotech/eparegofbiotech.htm   (2269 words)

The Open Society Paradox: Regulation Archives Over at Politechbot.com, Jim Harper of Cato was engaged with several members of the privacy movement on the issue of whether regulation is the answer to what many lament are threats to privacy brought to light by ChoicePoint. Take some time and read a few of these sources to find out why privacy regulation is costly, has unintended consequences, limits consumer choice, limits free speech and generally doesn't work. This means that regulation often proscribes non-harmful (even beneficial and productive) actions to get at the harmful subset of the proscribed actions." www.opensocietyparadox.com /mt/archives/cat_regulation.html   (748 words)
