The '''Institute for Regulatory Policy''' (IRP) was founded in 1991 as an operating subunit of [[Federal Focus]]. It was a front group created by the [[tobacco industry]] to support its version of "[[sound science]]" in environmental and public health policy. In addition to tobacco, IRP has worked on issues including radon, chlorinated water and electromagnetic fields.
