Citizens Advice response to UK Regulators’ Network Strategy 2024-27 Public consultation 115 KB

Citizens Advice welcomes the opportunity to respond to UKRN’s Strategy 2024-27, and support UKRN’s goal to focus on best practice in regulation. We acknowledge that at this stage UKRN is not seeking detailed input to its strategy and objectives. However, we think that it’s important that UKRN carefully considers the below areas when developing how it will deliver its annual delivery plans. We look forward to seeing this in more detail as its annual delivery plan is developed.

The independence of UKRN is essential to ensure the facilitation of best practice, and to progress collaboration towards outcomes that are best for consumers. While we agree with the decision to review UKRN’s governance to be more agile and responsive, it’s important that this does not come at the expense of delivering UKRN’s core priorities. In the below response we identify several areas where UKRN should focus its attention and where we would encourage it to provide more detail as the strategy develops.
