Ethics of Regulation

James McCormick

Department of Community Health, Trinity College, University of Dublin, Ireland

The ethical stances surrounding regulation of the quality of the indoor air can be classified as either deontological (justified by an a priori assumption) or consequential (pragmatic). The effects of regulation are sometimes unantici pated and may not always result in a beneficial effect on health.

Key Words: Deontological ethics • Consequential ethics • Autonomy • Justice • Beneficence
