York Regulation Network
The York Regulation Network (RegNet) brings together scholars and practitioners of regulation to open new horizons in regulatory governance through interdisciplinary collaboration.
Our members research public or private organisations that regulate past and present public life, administrative law, specific areas of policy, outcomes of government regulation, and related issues.
Our aim is to foster collaboration across disciplines and the academic-practitioner divide to help meet the challenges facing regulatory governance in the 21st century.
