Sunset Legislation als Instrument der besseren Rechtsetzung: Wunderwaffe oder stumpfes Schwert?

Abstract: EinleitungSunset Legislation -also die mit Evaluationspflichten verknüpfte Befristung von Gesetzen und anderen Rechtsnormen -ist ein Reforminstrument der Staats-und Verwaltungsmodernisierung, dessen erste Popularitätswelle bereits mehr als drei Jahrzehnte zurückliegt. In ihrem Ursprungsland USA zielten die in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren eingeführten Sunset-Vorschriften darauf ab, die parlamentarische Kontrolle der Exekutive zu verbessern.

“…In Switzerland, for instance, Article 24 of the Energy Utilization Decision of October 14, 1990, established the legal mandate to evaluate the action program, which was designed as "sunset legislation" (Sager et al, 2017).
