    This document provides guidance material on the monitoring and evaluation of demand-side innovation (DSI) policies. The intended audiences for this Guidebook are broad, including those designing policy (at different spatial levels, including the EU, national and regional levels), practitioners implementing programmes and policies, those commissioning monitoring and evaluation activities, and also those involved in delivering monitoring and evaluation. The Guidebook is not intended to provide detailed 'how to' instructions on the specifics of monitoring and evaluation techniques; there already exists a large body of guidance material on such aspects, and so it is not appropriate to duplicate this. Rather, the purpose of the Guidebook is to provide advice on how monitoring and evaluation should be considered in the specific context of DSI policies. As explained in Section 1 of this document, DSI policies are designed to induce innovation and/or speed up the diffusion of innovation through increasing the demand for innovation, defining new functional requirements for products and services and/or improving user involvement in innovation production. They are therefore distinct from other innovation policies (though in practice demand-side and supply-side policies could be combined within broader programmes of intervention), and this can have important implications when it comes to monitoring and evaluation. The aims of the Guidebook, therefore, are to: - provide advice on how to develop frameworks for the monitoring and evaluation of different DSI policies; - set out guidance on the key issues in determining the most appropriate evaluation design for DSI policies; - introduce the main methods and techniques that can be used for the impact and process evaluation of DSI policies; - identify the key requirements for monitoring, to assist in both process and impact evaluation.

    A wide and heterogeneous set of policies is labelled as 'demand- side innovation policy', since the definition of the concept is still controversial both in the academic literature and among practitioners. The set of possibilities ranges from regulation to various types of innovation-oriented public procurement. As a result of this heterogeneity, there have been fewer advances toward a serious empirical assessment of the impact of policies in this field than in other fields such as labour, family, education or health. One of the goals of this report is to assess existing evaluations of demand-side innovation policies to compile evidence with regard to the effectiveness of these policies and eventual best practices, with a focus on the causality of policies for the desired effects. The goal is to scan both the European Union (EU) and the most important competing economies for best and worst practices which can inform EU policy in the future, by collecting information about evaluations of existing demand-side policy measures. In the course of this exercise, based on the empirical evidence as well as current economic theory, we offer concrete suggestions on which additional demand-side policy measures may be applicable in the EU context. The primary focus of this study is complementary measures. However, we will also search for evaluations of 'conventional' demand-side measures, i.e. policies in the areas of legislation, standardisation/regulation and public procurement of innovation (including pre-commercial procurement)

    Is green consumerism beneficial to the environment and the economy? To shed light on this question, we study the political economy of environmental regulations in a model with neutral and green consumers where the latter derive some warm glow from buying a good of higher environmental quality produced by a profit-maximizing monopoly, while the good bought by neutral consumers is provided by a competitive fringe. Consumers unanimously vote for a standard set at a lower than first-best level, or for a tax delivering the first-best environmental protection level. Despite its under-provision of environmental protection, the standard dominates the tax from a welfare perspective due to its higher productive efficiency, i.e., a smaller gap between the environmental qualities of the two goods supplied. In stark contrast, voters unanimously prefer a tax to a standard when the willingness to pay for greener goods is small enough.

    The purpose of this paper is to examine, from the perspective of international trade, the general characteristics of the operation of technical regulations, technical standardization and conformity assessment procedures (quality infrastructure) adopted by Chile, Mexico and Colombia. Next, the researchers will try to identify, from a perspective that relates trade to quality infrastructure, similarities and differences between these three countries and the two main members of Mercosur: Brazil and Argentina. The conclusions will emphasize the importance of regulatory barrier and convergence initiatives to international trade.

    This article discusses a small scale pilot to harmonise three Bank of England statistical and regulatory data forms. The primary purpose of the pilot was to assess opportunities for improved operational efficiency in regulatory reporting. The broader purpose was to demonstrate how common data standards can be created from heterogeneous data sets. In the course of discussing the pilot, the article explains the history of how data has been collected at the Bank of England; how that process is changing in light of the Bank's Strategic Plan; and why a common data standard is a critical financial market infrastructure fundamental to the success of global regulatory reform.
