Environmental compliance and enforcement in India: rapid assessment
Strengthening enforcement and compliance systems has become a subject of particular interest in the context of designing policies that can stimulate sustainable development and economic growth. Recent discussions have shown the need to promote better understanding of the incentive structures facing firms and the need to provide governments with approaches that can optimize their expenditure on assuring environmental compliance. The objective of this rapid assessment is to help India to define priorities to address its key challenges in environmental compliance and enforcement and lay the groundwork for potential pilot activities that could be carried out under the aegis of AECEN.
