Synopsis: Regulation: Self regulation:

Since standardisation is a kind of industry self regulation, it may be substitutive to, complementary to, or even part of the regulatory framework.

and standardisation as an important form of self regulation with the former type being more effective for achieving health, safety and environmental aspects,

In addition, both regulation and self regulation loose significantly in importance the more in the future a new technology might be realised.

but allows progress in technology development through self regulation and self quality control. The codes are particularly enabling for medical devices,

and so self regulation of new nano-enabling components can continue. A case of focused alignment of R&d agendas in national initiatives can be seen.

self regulation and voluntary reporting go unchecked. The Precautionary principle is promoted within codes but framed by self-assessment mechanisms (degree of precaution unclear).

self regulation and voluntary reporting go unchecked. Responsible actors, who have followed a particular code of conduct, flag their level responsibility by highlighting the following of codes as a sign of good governance Tension:

This kind of‘private'regulation is named‘self regulation 'and has become part of the standardisation and regulation process in a number of areas including food safety and environmental standards.

Scientific integrity and self regulation: The concept of the integrity of the scientist is very important in international science

There could also be challenges to the concept of self regulation in the light of demands for new forms of public accountability.

e g. peer review and other forms of self regulation Proliferation of local solutions to societal problems that also utilise‘traditional knowledge'Fewer opportunities for curiosity-driven Research funding for science is on a relative decline Figure 1. Exploratory scenario
