Abstract
This study aims to measure the current situation in the UAE in terms of applying the methodology of measuring the impact of legislation, and the extent of the necessity of establishing binding federal legislation, whether in the form of a federal law or a regulatory decision that regulates the most important legal provisions and procedural details of the process or methodology of measuring the impact of national legislation, or whether it requires re-studying the legislative cycle according to which laws and regulatory decisions are issued in the country, analyzing the processes, and introducing the process of measuring the impact of legislation within the legislative cycle to ensure its full implementation, such that skipping or ignoring this process in requesting the preparation of laws and regulatory decisions in the country is a clear transgression. This study is about the approach and direction of the government of the United Arab Emirates in evaluating the impact of legislation, through analyzing the methodology followed in the country and comparing it with the approved international methodologies, and monitoring the pros and cons of this practice, and then exploring the means to evaluate, develop and criticize it if it is flawed in any of its aspects. It is hoped that this study will lead to establishing the features of a general policy in the field of legislation, the aim of which is to establish best practices in the field and propose solutions that may help in filling the legal gap related to studying the impact of legislation in the state.
