Each of these markets has unique characteristics in terms of healthcare service provisioning, pricing, and accessibility. We underscore systemic failures resulting from a lack of clarity about the structure of these markets, including disparities in service provision, lack of awareness about available services, and skewed incentives favouring private sector provisioning. We suggest unification of India's disparate healthcare markets, advocating for a more prominent role for the government. The proposed unification is a modification of the school voucher program, aimed at ensuring competitiveness on the supply side, and thereby improving service quality. While acknowledging the challenges of scale and state capacity, we argue that the proposal is worthy of further discussion and research, given its potential to harness the government's purchasing power to improve accessibility, affordability, and promote a competitive landscape that encourages innovation and quality in healthcare services. \u0000","PeriodicalId":173340,"journal":{"name":"Indian Public Policy Review","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129788384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper argues that despite its shortcomings, Rule 3(1) in the Draft Rules is still an important milestone for the progressive realisation of workers’ welfare in India, because it is the first time that the Union Government has shown normative commitment towards ratifying the recommendations of the 15th Indian Labour Conference, 1957. The benefit of calculating the minimum wage as per Rule 3(1) of the Draft Rules, which is in tune with the 15th Indian Labour Conference recommendations, would be that it will ensure that the minimum wages will be set at a quantum higher than usually set by the Committees and Wage Boards appointed by the Union Governments throughout history. Therefore, while it is necessary that the civil society organisations eventually push for a better version of Rule 3(1) in the Draft Rules, it is equally important that they act as watchdogs to ensure full-fledged ratification and implementation of the 15th ILC norms in Rule 3(1) in the Draft Code Rules in the first place. \u0000","PeriodicalId":173340,"journal":{"name":"Indian Public Policy Review","volume":"17 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130646701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of transparency around off-budget borrowing is a major example of data gaps in India, and has been persistent across the Union and state levels. The paper examines the regulatory framework and institutional gaps surrounding off-budget borrowings in India. It attempts to build a comprehensive understanding on the methods used for such borrowings and ascertains their true extent. The paper relies primarily on data from CAG audits of the Union and state finance accounts. The paper welcomes the Union's recent actions to make transparent and begin to do away with the use of off-budget borrowings. However, more actions are needed to close this form of data gap, at the Union and the states and, meanwhile, the Union should focus on ensuring the full reporting of these borrowings. This calls for an improvement in the coverage, timeliness, quality and integrity of fiscal reporting, in line with international standards. Eventually, that could be best achieved with a comprehensive and consolidated PFM law for the Union and the states. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":173340,"journal":{"name":"Indian Public Policy Review","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124553549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Does India's Ban on Electronic Cigarettes Improve Public Health Outcomes? 印度禁止电子烟能改善公众健康状况吗?

This is a missed public health opportunity to reduce tobacco consumption, if ENDS actually help reduce and wean users off nicotine dependency in less harmful ways. This paper applies a risk analysis framework to examine whether India’s ban on ENDS improves public health outcomes, or whether an alternative approach such as regulation would be more effective. It studies global responses and compares how public health goals are served in the United States of America and the United Kingdom, based on four key parameters of concern – health impacts, normalisation of ENDS usage among non-smokers, appeal among youth, and device safety. This comparison demonstrates that the United Kingdom’s regulation-focused approach delivers superior outcomes across all four parameters. Thus, the evidence-based recommendation for India would be to regulate at least HNB devices under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (as they utilise tobacco), as this can help reduce harm and promote innovation in devices that can wean users off nicotine dependence. \u0000","PeriodicalId":173340,"journal":{"name":"Indian Public Policy Review","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125603172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
