This project’s objectives were to produce qualitative evidence of business perspectives on the effectiveness of enforcement and other activities within the wider set of approaches regulators use to secure compliance by:
- Identifying business perspectives on the effectiveness of enforcement activities and other approaches to compliance, at achieving compliance and associated environmental and regulatory objectives;
- Identifying how perspectives on the effectiveness of enforcement activities vary by sector, size of business and type of regulatory regime;
- Exploring firms’ views of the relative effectiveness of the different types of enforcement and sanction activities available to environmental regulators;
- Capturing the relative importance of specific and general deterrence on the behaviour of firms.
