Regulator Performance Independent Review Programme

This page covers the government's ongoing performance reviews of regulators.

To achieve the vision set out in the government’s plan to ensure regulators and regulation support growth, the government committed to strengthening the model of accountability to enhance regulator performance and ensure regulation is proportionate. To support this vision, the government will be delivering independent expert performance reviews of key regulators to tackle challenges and barriers that prevent growth.

The first review will be of the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) to evaluate how it can deliver on its refreshed objectives to support rail sector transformation and deliver on enduring functions. Full details of this review can be found in the terms of reference.
