In this latest podcast we focus on “Regulation in public life – what make it work” and explore the way effective regulation can improve the democratic process and underpin the public’s confidence in decision makers.
Our guest is Kathryn Stone OBE, chair of the Bar Standards Board and former Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. In her career Kathryn has moved from one high profile role in regulation to another so it is well placed to offer her view on the sector.
Before taking up her new role at the Bar Standards Board in August Kathryn was Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards, a post that she held since January 2018. Before that she was Chief Legal Ombudsman for England and Wales from 2016 and served as a Commissioner with the Independent Police Complaints Commission and at the Commission for Victims and Survivors in Northern Ireland.
In the podcast Kathryn discusses a range of issues including:
- The challenge of regulating high profile individuals and institutions;
- From MPs to barristers - speaking truth to power;
- The character traits of a successful regulator;
- The role of the Institute of Regulation to drive professional standards;
- What drives her to regulate;
- Advise to anyone thinking of a career in regulation.
