Annual reports will detail lawsuits related to environmental regulations, including who is suing and the outcomes of cases.
Reports will also track the length and completion times of environmental impact statements for major projects, potentially affecting the speed of public and private investments.
All data used to prepare the reports will be publicly available, allowing citizens to independently analyze and assess the impact of regulations.
