I believe, following your question, that in their current state, the proposed regulations will not effect measurable change because they lack clear objectives and clear directives on the scientific method to be employed and on measurement tools of such progress to be made. They are far too vague. I say this as a lawyer, as a research director and as an academic. They are simply too vague to be effective. There need to be much more precise measurement points, methodologies and objectives to be attained if the regulations are to accomplish anything.
