Problem Identification

Identify and prioritize the regulatory problems that require policy intervention.

Purpose

Identify and prioritize the regulatory problems that require policy intervention.

Expected Output

Prioritized list of policy issues.

Facilitator Guide

  1. 1

    Ask participants to individually list the regulatory problems they have observed or experienced.

  2. 2

    Use a round-robin approach to collect all identified problems without judgment.

  3. 3

    Group similar problems together to avoid duplication.

  4. 4

    Facilitate a discussion to clarify and refine each identified problem.

  5. 5

    Use a prioritization exercise (e.g., dot voting or ranking) to identify the most critical issues.

  6. 6

    Ensure that the prioritized list reflects the consensus of the group.

  7. 7

    Document the final prioritized list of policy issues for use in subsequent phases.

    What are the most significant regulatory problems you have observed in this area?

  • Q2.

    Who is most affected by these regulatory problems?

  • Q3.

    What evidence exists that these problems are widespread or systemic?

  • Q4.

    Which problems, if left unaddressed, would have the most serious consequences?

  • Q5.

    Are there any problems that are interconnected or that share common causes?

Participant Responses
