Many ‘frontline’ regulatory functions are performed by people in a wide range of service delivery or compliance roles that not directly connected to regulatory policy. What are the challenges and potential for ‘connecting up’ all levels of a regulatory organisation?

We hope for compliance, but we often encounter defiance or indifference.       

How do we engage more fully with those who do not want to engage with us? 

Seminar 4: Regulatory information and stakeholder engagement 

How can we better use and share regulatory information? What are the challenges of doing so? What are the most effective strategies for using information to support engagement with regulated entities and stakeholders in our authorising environments? 

Seminar 5: Regulatory communication 

What is best practice for regulatory communication? How can it support building cooperation with regulated entities and stakeholders What are some of the challenges for communicating effectively as a regulator? 

Seminar 6: Regulatory relationships, professionalism and ethics 

Most regulators are not alone in the regulatory spaces in which they operate. How do we navigate regulatory relationships without being compromised or captured? How do we communicate with, cooperate and collaborate with other regulators and regulatory actors within a federation? What works in developing those relationships, and when do they come under pressure?
