About ATR and RegWatchEurope

ATR, the Dutch Advisory Board on Regulatory Burden, is an independent and external advisory body that advises government and Parliament on how to minimize regulatory burdens. ATR wants to contribute to a society in which the government achieves its goals while minimizing the hindrance of regulation.

Tasks

ATR advises on all proposed legislation and regulations that have consequences for the regulatory burden. This is done at the earliest possible stage of the legislative process, or on draft regulations. ATR can also advise on existing legislation, and on regulations from other authorities then ministeries. For example on policy rules and other rules of supervisors, inspections and implementing organizations.

Board of ATR

Marijke van Hees is the chair. The other board members are Eric Janse de Jonge and Hayke Veldman. All members are appointed by the Council of Ministers. The board is supported by a secretariat led by Rudy van Zijp.
