    Guiding Nursing Regulation Philosophy The nursing regulatory body (NRB) develops policy, designs regulation, administers and enforces regulatory law and rules to accomplish its mandate of protecting the safety of the public. To meet this responsibility, the regulatory decisions of the NRB must be evidence-based, clearly defined, consistent, targeted and proportionate to the level of risk determination. As part of its responsibility to the public, the NRB’s regulatory decisions must also be made in a timely, efficient, effective, and transparent manner while allowing for consistent and comprehensive evaluation of regulatory process and performance.
