Regulatory Agencies

Regulatory agencies are government bodies responsible for overseeing specific sectors or activities to ensure compliance with laws and standards. They protect public interests, such as health, safety, and the environment, by creating regulations and monitoring organizations or industries. Examples include the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which ensures food and medicine safety, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which protects the environment. These agencies investigate violations, enforce laws, and promote fair practices to maintain order and safety in society. Their role is crucial in balancing economic growth with public well-being.
