As a member of the Institute of Regulation, you are invited to join this session which is available to all members – affiliate, corporate and individual.

Held under the Chatham House rule, we invite you to join the quarterly forum with resilience experts from Cabinet Office and regulatory leaders.

This session will be hosted by Michael Hanton, Deputy Chief Regulator, Ofqual and speakers Matthew Clarke, Director of Resilience, Cabinet Office and Caroline Field, PA Consulting. 

We face an increasingly volatile, uncertain, and changing environment - from climate change, cyber-attacks, crisis affecting global supply chain. It’s a government priority to build greater resilience into all aspects of society, and to take a whole society and preventative approach to this.

Regulation will play an important role in developing resilience. Many regulators are well placed to be influential in achieving this, certainly those that regulate critical national infrastructure, but all regulators instinctively view their sector(s) through the lens of risk.

This session an opportunity for members of the Institute of Regulation to learn more about government’s thinking on resilience and to consider the implications for regulation and regulatory practice today.

In this session delegates will be invited to explore the following questions:

• What do you consider to be the role of regulation in securing greater national resilience today?

• What will enable regulators to promote greater resilience?

• How might regulators and government support emerging good practice?

The quarterly member forum is an important feature of your IoR membership subscription. This is your opportunity to meet in a relaxed informal setting, gain insights and debate the issues of the day with regulatory experts and professionals from a diverse range of sectors.
