Key documents: Impact assessments
The following Impact Assessments have been developed to show the cost benefit analysis associated with policies and other impacts. A summary document, drawing together the main impacts, can be found in the main draft bill package.
All of the Impact assessments have been cleared by Defra’s Chief Economist and signed by the Secretary of State.
For now these impact assessments are living documents so their content will always be changing. For ease, take April 2011 as the general implementation date. This will be confirmed in the final publications.
