Use of evidence in policymaking

The better regulation agenda helps the EU deliver evidence-based policies and laws that achieve their objectives in the most efficient way, while being tailormade to the needs of EU citizens, businesses, and civil society. The better regulation guidelines and toolbox provide concrete guidance to Commission services involved in preparing new initiatives and proposals, or managing and evaluating existing legislation.
