【主讲内容介绍】
Random inspection is considered a law enforcement method that can decrease the likelihood of collusion between supervisors and supervised objects. Using over 160,000 inspection records from 2016 to 2019, this study examined how China’s implementation of randomized environmental inspections affects law enforcement efficiency. We find that randomized environmental inspections reduce the overall efficiency of law enforcement. Randomized environmental inspections revealed 11% fewer environmental problems and 5% fewer environmental violations than nonrandom inspections. Further examination of the mechanisms reveals that the implementation of randomized environmental inspections hinders the utilization of local officials' specialized knowledge in effectively targeting polluting companies and identifying violations, thereby diminishing the overall efficiency of law enforcement. However, we find that randomized environmental inspections can reduce the probability of collusion, thereby improving law enforcement efficiency. Large firms and regions with low transparency benefit more from randomized environmental inspections than small firms and regions with high transparency. To develop more effective enforcement strategies, policymakers should weigh the benefits of random inspection in reducing collusion against the drawbacks in losing target.
