The regulatory policy of entrepreneurship development is aimed at creating favorable conditions for increasing competitiveness and the role of entrepreneurship in the economic system by applying a set of state regulatory measures aimed at improving the quality of public administration through the formation of a legislative space for the successful functioning and development of entrepreneurship, which, in turn, acts as a dominant economic security of the national economy. The purpose of this article is to study the influence of the regulatory policy of entrepreneurship development on ensuring the economic security of the national economy by determining the level of development of innovative entrepreneurship in the region. An analysis of the state of entrepreneurship in Ukraine was carried out, on the basis of which the main development trends, factors that influenced their formation, as well as directions for improving regulatory policy in the context of ensuring economic security of national security were determined. It has been proven that the focus of entrepreneurial structures on innovative activities will contribute to increasing competitiveness and profitability, which in turn will improve the life of the population, strengthen the economic position of the middle class, and therefore ensure the economic security of the national economy. Within the framework of the article, a methodical approach to the assessment of the development of innovative entrepreneurship in the regions of Ukraine is proposed, which makes it possible to carry out methodologically correct comparisons of the levels of development of the regions at the meso-level both by the complex indicator and by its individual components. The authors grouped and ranked the regions according to a comprehensive indicator and identified the leading regions, regions with an average level of development of innovative entrepreneurship, and outsider regions. Recommendations for overcoming the identified disparities are provided.

This paper addresses the effects of the new general law on independent agencies in Brazil. This regulatory reform sought to increase transparency and accountability, strengthen ex-ante evaluation, and improve decision-making. The research objective was to evaluate the possible organizational and institutional consequences of these changes. The study compared data collected from key actors in the 11 agencies referring to the period before the law with the regulatory scenario one year after the law was enacted. The results allow an unprecedented panoramic view of the agencies’ instruments under the inspiration of better regulation, and the new scenario can positively impact these structures’ credibility and trust. The study indicates an advance in the Brazilian regulatory governance model and opens space for future research.

We argue that political competition based on income redistribution a la Lindbeck and Weibull (Public Choice 52:273-297, 1987) may cause distortive regulation in a competitive sector. For this purpose, we propose a model in which imposing a production quota allows the extraction of rents that are then used for vote-buying purposes. Our model permits us to analyze the response of regulatory policy to political factors, such as the size of a group of informed voters and the accuracy of their information about the incumbent. We also show that the extent of voter influence on policy outcomes is shaped by the state of market demand. In particular, if demand becomes weaker, market intervention increases in a magnitude that depends positively on the electoral weight of informed voters.

Reports, studies, and surveys have demonstrated telehealth provides opportunities to make health care more efficient, better coordinated, convenient, and affordable. Telehealth can also help address health income and access disparities in underserved communities by removing location and transportation barriers, unproductive time away from work, childcare expenses, and so on. Despite evidence showing high-quality outcomes, satisfaction, and success rates (e.g., 95% patient satisfaction rate and 84% success rate in which patients were able to completely resolve their medical concerns during a telehealth visit), nationwide adoption of telehealth has been quite low due to policy and regulatory barriers, constraints, and complexities.

We collect a sample of EU and US merger investigations, estimate models of the regulatory decisions, and use the models to compare merger policies. Our approach allows us to decompose observed differences into policy effects and case-mix effects. Focusing on dominance mergers, we find that the EU is tougher than the US on average, in particular for mergers resulting in moderate market shares. However, the US appears to be more aggressive for coordinated interaction and non-dominance unilateral effects cases. Overall, our analysis detects substantial differences in policies, but it does not classify one regime as being more aggressive than the other.

This paper investigates the approaches and the effectiveness of the government of Hong Kong in using the planning system and land policies to help provide affordable homes, widening the planning and affordable housing debate to urban systems in which governments possess both landownership and development rights. This paper argues that land and development right ownerships enable the Hong Kong Government to operate a massive public housing program to meet the housing needs of half the population at affordable rent and price levels, without having to resort to planning tools. However, the availability of subsidized housing still depends on other factors, notably government commitment and priority in solving housing problems. Landownership is less useful in regulating private housing prices as political and economic factors often override the situation. The empirical findings of this study suggest that land supply was often adjusted in response to the economic environment rather than shaping market outcomes. Hence, government ownership of land and development rights is found to be more effective in providing affordable subsidized housing to low-income families through the producer-subsidy approach rather than in regulating housing prices to enhance the affordability for private housing consumers.

This article presents a review and evaluation of the reach the reform and regulation have extended to the Lesotho telecommunications industry since its return to democratic rule in 1993. It is found that the Government of Lesotho has made huge progress in the reform process by privatising the state-owned utility and establishing an autonomous regulatory body with statutory powers to regulate the telecommunications industry. Even though the independence of the regulator has come under question in the past, a more liberal and competitive sector has been encouraged by the gradual replacements of policies and legislation that impeded its growth. Telecommunications services' penetration has improved considerably from 0.75% in 1995 to 78% in 2012, spurred by mobile networks. However, the potential of telecommunications development in Lesotho, like in many small developing African countries, has not been fully utilised, especially in the expansion of internet access.
