The RIA was developed in response to the growing value and complexity of the state regulation. Demand for RIA as a new instrument in norm setting affected the speed of its institutionalization. It was not until 2010, that the RIA got an impulse for development in Russia, though it had been already actively used in norm setting practice by the countries of (OECD) for 30 years. While developing at the Federal level, the RIA has been "stepping down" to regions since 2012. Due to significant regional differentiation in the RF it is becoming really urgent to work out approaches to developing and forming models of the RIA institutionalization at the regional level.Conclusions and recommendations: (1) consistency of the decentralization approach in the RIA procedure has been proved, with the function of the RIA inculcation being fixed for the developer of the act (branch department); (2) a regulatory document development scheme of the RIA institutionalization procedure is presented; (3) it is suggested that the stage of a full regulatory impact assessment should be only held in relation to meaningful  normative-legal bills; (4) the complexity of the RIA procedure, shown by the pilot project results, does not recommend using it in municipalities. It is inexpedient. AU - V. Kolegov UR - https://vgmu.hse.ru/en/2013--2/86923424.html PY - 2013 SP - 141-164 VL -
