To curtail such delays and to ensure expeditious and result oriented enforcement mechanism, the Amendment Regulations provides for following:

- Revisions in various timelines related to enforcement process provided in the (Grievance and Complaint Handling Procedure) Regulations, 2017 and (Inspection and Investigation) Regulations, 2017 for addressing the issue of delay in present mechanism.

- Effective participation of IPAs in regulating the IPs through examination of grievances received against IPs.
