Effective and efficient administration
The Clean Energy Regulator is working hard to
build a strong reputation with its clients and the
broader community. The Clean Energy Regulator
is committed to being open and accessible, as
outlined in the Regulator's Service Charter, and
to providing clear guidance about regulatory
requirements and timelines. This is expected to build
client confidence and, in turn, increase the level of
voluntary compliance, which will ultimately reduce
administrative costs for the agency and compliance
costs for clients. Over time, regulatory operations
will be streamlined and integrated within and across
the schemes to reduce regulatory burden and take
advantage of the depth of regulatory experience
within the agency. This will ensure consistency in
service delivery and will provide a familiar point of
contact to our clients.
The Clean Energy Regulator is also implementing a
strong performance management system to allow
for the monitoring, measurement and reporting on
its regulatory performance. Standard operating
procedures, strong internal controls and a risk based
approach to resource allocation are all measures
which contribute to effectiveness. These measures
will also enable the Clean Energy Regulator to
enhance operational efficiency, for example by
allowing for the consistent execution of regulatory
activities. The Clean Energy Regulator is committed
to the principle of continuous improvement to achieve
repeatable and reliable processes that minimise
steps, reduce the risk of error and avoid multiple
handling.
The Clean Energy Regulator will ensure that in
the development of its business processes and
external systems that it reflects the Government's
commitments to business and industry to reduce
the reporting burden. For example, the Clean Energy
Regulator is undertaking a number of activities aimed
at leveraging the Standard Business Reporting
initiative including, in the shorter term, implementing
the Auskey authentication service.
