ABSTRACT

We argue that one of the recurrent problems in Korean regulatory reform system comes from the structural incentive-compatibility problem inherent in the Korean Regulatory Reform Committee(KRRC). This organizational problem results in weak performance of the regulatory reform policy. To resolve this problem, we suggest transforming the KRRC’s administrative committee organization to administrative agency organization. If we maintain current organizational form of KRRC, it’s hard to attenuate information problems of the department’s staff in charge of regulatory reform and the Committee’s staff organization. This asymmetric information in the organizations of regulatory reform system renders efficient implementation of the Committee’s reform policy. Transforming KRRC to an administrative agency will enhance regulatory reform capacity and enforce political accountability of the KRRC, which contributes to the reduction of information asymmetry in the process of regulatory reform policy implementation.
