Yes, perhaps governance is a better word.

In a free market we of course would have competing regulatory groups that probably work alongside insurance companies.

Insurance company X: "You are running a restaurant sir? We will rack up your premiums unless you get certifued by these agencies"

You as the owner, either skip town and wait till you are at the end of contractual period with X or you decide, maybe his selection of healthy-and-safety accreditation companies are fine and I will go along with it.

What we have now is the inability to choose that. Not because of a natural monopoly (I.e. a company doing well because they simply have a superior product) but a violent one. We have a group of people saying "only these are the health and safety standards for restaurants".

So I agree on governance, but not a state, which is a mafia that has guns and disrespects you by imposing a contract on you that you. Never signed.
