Good Governance in Egypt
Legislative Drafting Manual for Better Policy
This report looks at the role of legislative drafting manuals in enhancing legislative
and regulatory quality. It presents experiences and good practices from both OECD
and MENA countries in the preparation and application of these manuals. In particular,
the report discusses the preparation of Egypt’s legislative drafting guide, which
is among the first of its kind in the region. The report maps out the process of legislative
drafting in Egypt, identifies existing challenges in the current legislative and regulatory
framework, and explores how the Egyptian Legislative Drafting Guide could help overcome
these challenges. The report concludes with tailored policy recommendations to help
maximise the potential of the Egyptian Legislative Drafting Guide as a tool for obtaining
better outcomes from legislation.
