Course Overview
Regulation has become an increasingly preferred policy instrument of governments, and this course will therefore look at what regulation is, who the key actors are, how different stakeholders (businesses, politicians, regulators) should interact, and how regulation is appropriately enforced.
This course is designed for those engaged with the overlap of policy and regulation - the rise of the 'regulatory state' - including government officials, regulators and other stakeholders.
Distinguished Speakers:
- Sir Henry Bellingham, Member of the House of Lords and former Foreign Office Minister

- Learn about regulatory enforcement and the way in which regulatory compliance is achieved
- Develop understanding of the different approaches to regulation, including self-regulation by industry
