The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) asked for the assistance of Jacobs, Cordova & Associates in applying Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) to policy/regulatory issues in its work. Adoption of RIA by the ICASA was a natural step in the implementation of the ICASA Act adopted in 2000. We conducted a training session for ICASA staff, and recommended steps for ICASA to mainstream RIA and stakeholder consultation into ICASA’s policy processes.
