Regulatory Coherence: The Case of the Republic of Korea

Print Article:
Abstract
The Government of the Republic of Korea has made great efforts to improve its regulatory management system and to realise regulatory reform since the economic crisis of the late 1990s. Section 1 of this paper explores the evolution of regulatory reform and reviews the coherence of the regulatory management system in the Republic of Korea. Sections 2 and 3 explore how this system was applied in two case studies of regulatory change: Section 2 on golf course regulation and Section 3 on the restriction of opening hours of food services businesses.
