While reducing unnecessary regulations is a worthwhile goal, mandating that two rules be repealed for every new rule is arbitrary and inflexible. If consolidation or repeal is appropriate, it can be addressed within the rulemaking process itself without imposing a rigid quota. If this model is truly sound policy, it raises the question of why similar constraints are not applied to legislative enactments.
