Abstract:
This discussion document provides detailed guidance on the general principles that should be followed in the development and implementation of risk rating systems and regulatory resource planning algorithms. The guidance has been developed for certain Environmental Protection functions (Process Industries Regulation (PIR), Waste and Water Quality), but may be applied across a wider range of Agency functions in future. The guidance enables a flexible approach to risk-based resource planning, given the different conditions prevailing in different functions. However, the guidance also specifies core principles and details which should be applied by all functions, in order to ensure consistency and credibility across the Agency, and to ultimately enable comparison and resource planning across Environmental Protections functions.
