state regulation
Official rules enforcement
State regulation refers to rules and oversight imposed by government on businesses, industries, or activities.
The term often appears in discussions of economic policy, where it contrasts with free-market approaches: The airline industry operated under heavy state regulation until the 1970s.
State regulation can also mean rules from a U.S. state as distinct from federal law: State regulation of cannabis varies widely.
