Abstract
Regulation in the European Union includes objective and structured ex ante processes to evaluate the impact of legal initiatives in order to resolve the existing gaps between policy strategies and the actual state of legislation. These ex ante and ex post evaluations have been approved since 2002 The economic agenda of Lisbon aims to promote the economic growth of the Union and include various dimensions such as economic, social, environmental and future proof research in the process of reviewing legal plans, with the consideration of diverse and sometimes independent institutional structures, and despite the lengthy process of initial approval of the text Legislation in the Commission has led to the completion of more plans and the realization of Lisbon's macroeconomic goals, i.e. the promotion of productive employment rates and knowledge-based economic growth.
Using the descriptive-analytical method and legal documents related to the Lisbon strategy, this article has studied the experiences of the European Union, the evolution of the Lisbon policy and the impact of these strategies on the structure and better regulatory processes of this institution.
The findings of the research indicate that the Lisbon strategy, emphasizing the need to adapt the legislative structures and decision-making system of the Union, with the focus on facilitating the activities of small and medium-sized businesses and improving the employment rate, has significant impact on the agenda of the Union's policies as well as the regulatory process by running smart regulation program, the better regulation toolbox, Fit for Future platform and Etc.
