I like the general idea, policy that is drafted with clear statements about what it does, why it’s doing things they way it’s designed and what the desired outcomes are aimed for. It seems to be somewhat similar to cases where the courts have thrown laws back to the law makers because they are not clear enough for legal enforcement by the courts. However that is a really poor initial check as something first has to get to a court and then go in front of a judge that is willing to call BS on some legislation or regulation.
I think there is a lot of room for improving the legislative processes—certainly in the USA where I am. But I also agree with those noting that in many ways such structures or process requirements are not really aligned with now politics and policy setting actually work. But it seems like that might be one of the shackles we might want Leviathan to have to wear.
