HC Deb 10 March 2004 vol 418 c1514W
Mr. Heald

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office what estimate he has made of the(a)recurring and (b)non-recurring costs for (i) a typical business and (ii) all business of the regulations passed so far this Session. [160045]

Mr. Alexander

All proposals which have a potential impact on business charities or voluntary bodies must be accompanied by a regulatory impact assessment determining whether the costs of the proposal are justified by its benefits. Costs of individual regulations can be found in the published regulatory impact assessments, available in the House Library.
