Core competencies

While the frameworks relate to particular areas of regulation, the core competencies are relevant to all regulators, regardless of the level and specific nature of their work. However, their interpretation will vary: the workplace expectations in relation to regulators at the start of their careers and those with long experience are clearly very different.

GRIP feedback

GRIP continues to evolve, shaped by users and stakeholders. Please use the feedback form to highlight material that should be added, or is surplus to requirements.

Regulatory Delivery

Regulatory Delivery brings together policy expertise and practical experience to ensure that regulation is effectively delivered in ways that reduce burdens on business, save public money and properly protect citizens and communities. We are a directorate in the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
