Regulatory Excellence Awards expand to include product safety
May 10 deadline looms for Regulatory Excellence Awards entries.
Time is running out to enter this year’s Regulatory Excellence Awards, organised by the Office for Product Safety and Standards.
The Awards recognise regulatory organisations, individuals, businesses and trade associations that have achieved positive outcomes through good practice. Judges may choose up to three winners in each of four categories: Primary Authority; Product Safety; Better Business for All; Innovation and Technical (including metrology and hallmarking).
There is already a good crop of entries, many of them from organisations that have never previously applied. They will be judged under the following areas: outstanding partnership or organisation; champions who have gone the extra mile in their respective field; and impact makers, who have made the biggest difference for their citizens and business communities.
Winners will be announced at on June 20, at the offices of Gowling WLG in London. Entry is simple, via a 500-word (max) statement that demonstrates how the individual or organisation has made a real difference in protecting their citizens and supporting their business communities, using better regulation tools and principles.
