This seminar focused on the enforcement and delivery of business regulation in the UK. The seminar came as Government took forward wide-ranging reforms to the way regulators enforce business regulation, seeking reduced burdens on businesses whilst also maintaining appropriate safeguards for citizens, consumers and communities.
The discussion was timed a year on from the creation of the Better Regulation Delivery Office (BRDO) and brought together regulators from across national and local bodies - including those working in areas such as trading standards, licensing, environmental health and fire safety - alongside businesses, consultants, insurers and key policymakers from Government and Whitehall. Delegates discussed how Government can promote a "more mature relationship" between regulators and businesses - with particular reference to how light-touch and risk-based regulatory regimes can be encouraged - as well as the key challenges for expanding the Primary Authority scheme to more businesses, as Government took forward relevant proposals included in the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Bill.
