Observatory on Italian <\/span><\/span><\/strong>Independent Regulators\u2019 CALL FOR PAPERS 2012<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1. Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n The Observatory on Italian Independent Regulators\u2019 Impact Assessment (Osservatorio AIR), was founded in 2009 following an agreement drawn up between the Department of Legal Sciences of the University of Tuscia (Viterbo) and the Faculty of Law of the \u201cParthenope\u201d University of Naples. The Observatory is funded by the Institute for Research on Public Administration (IRPA). The Observatory is working on research projects all aiming to monitor the evolution of Regulatory impact assessment (RIA) in eight Italian Independent Regulators: Antitrust Authority (Agcm), Communications Regulatory Authority (Agcom), Regulatory Authority for Electricity and Gas (Aeeg), Authority for the Supervision of Public Contracts for works, services and supplies (Avcp), Bank of Italy, Insurance Regulatory Authority (Isvap), Data Protection Authority, Companies and Stock Exchange Commission (Consob), Supervisory Commission on Pension Funds (Covip). The research is particularly aimed to analyse analogies and differences concerning RIA\u2019s implementation. The Observatory produces analyses, papers, case studies, synthetic reports and thematic studies dealing with the current activities relating to impact assessment carried out by Italian and foreign Independent Regulators. The aim is to examine in detail the characteristics of the most significant experiences; to analyse the specific problems faced by Regulators in the implementation of RIA; to study the development of a particular methodological aspect; to highlight best practices; to provide a comparative examination of the experiences realized by each Independent Regulator relating to RIA, through synthesis indicators or cross analysis of the most relevant aspects.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. Issues<\/strong><\/p>\n Several themes may usefully be explored in order to deepen our understanding of regulatory impact assessment. These themes include the following:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3.
