Governance

Our two Standards requiring regulators and sa国际传媒官网网页入口 Registers to put in place arrangements to effectively protect the public and maintain public confidence as well as report on organisational performance, including addressing concerns about performance. (We use the term 鈥渙rganisation鈥 to refer to both regulators and sa国际传媒官网网页入口 Registers.)

Return to the full list of Standards

Standard 1: Good Governance

What do we expect?

 The organisation publicly reports on its performance, identifies and acts on learning and addresses concerns about its performance.
 

Why is it important?

So that public protection and public confidence is improved by the organisation monitoring its performance, identifying and acting upon concerns and relevant learning. Everyone can be clear about how well the organisation is performing in key areas.

What does this mean in practice?

  • The organisation is transparent in reporting on its performance.
  • The organisation analyses its own performance to identify areas for learning and improvement, and acts on issues identified.
  • Relevant learning and best practice from external reports and inquiries, including PSA publications, is identified, considered, and integrated into policy and practice.
