Red Tape Reform Act 2019: Article III - Redundancy Removal Act

This article is the third and final installment of the Red Tape Reform Act 2019, a sweeping legislative package aimed at reducing bureaucratic inefficiency.

After two years of deliberation, countless hours of committee meetings, and untold gallons of coffee consumed, we have reached the end of this arduous process.

And what do we have to show for it? A whole lot of redundant regulations, that's what!

Join us as we explore the top 5 most egregious examples of redundancy in the Red Tape Reform Act 2019 and find out why they're being repealed.

Section 1: The Redundancy of Redundancies

Did you know that the Red Tape Reform Act 2019 includes a regulation that requires all forms to be printed in triplicate, just in case the first two copies get lost in the mail?

Section 2.1: The Redundancy of Redundancies (a) - This subsection requires that all forms be stapled in the middle.
Section 2.2: The Redundancy of Redundancies (b) - This subsection requires that all forms be hole-punched with a 1/4 inch punch.

Why, you ask? Because, in the words of the esteemed Chairman of the Committee, "We just wanted to make sure that the form doesn't get lost in the mail, and we're willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen."

Section 3.2: The Redundancy of Redundancies (d) - This subsection requires that all meetings be transcribed in triplicate, and then have each transcript reviewed by a team of experts.

But wait, there's more! We're not done with the Redundancy of Redundancies yet!

And finally, we have the section that requires all reports to be printed in both English and Spanish, just in case someone wants to read it in a language they're not fluent in.

Section 4.1: The Redundancy of Redundancies (e) - This subsection requires that all reports be translated from English to Spanish, then back to English, and then translated again from English to Spanish.
Section 4.2: The Redundancy of Redundancies (f) - This subsection requires that all reports be printed in both English and Spanish, with a special section for French.
