The Rudd-Gillard government seems to think there is no problem that cannot be fixed by more regulation. Despite a promise of one in, one out the Rudd-Gillard government is damned by its own statistics. The Commonwealth's own Comlaw register reveals that between 2008 and 2010 federal Labor introduced 12,835 new regulations while repealing how many—58. Missed by that much, as Maxwell Smart would say.
