At TSO’s first Regulators Round Table at the House of Commons, senior representatives from across the UK regulatory landscape joined us to explore how regulation can move from being perceived as a constraint to becoming a driver of innovation, investment, and economic confidence.
The conversation confirmed that regulating for growth is a priority for regulators across all sectors - several regulators have been reporting on growth requirements for some time, learning valuable lessons along the way. For many, this has been an opportunity to look inward and better understand the impact of their activities on the organisations and sectors they oversee. The process has brought greater awareness of the balance between protection and progress.
A recurring theme was that stability, confidence, and transparency form the foundation for growth. When regulated organisations can see what’s coming - through clear regulatory roadmaps and transparent communication - they are more able to plan, invest, and innovate with certainty.
How regulation is published and presented plays a key role in ensuring that it is easy to find, use and understand. Using structured data enables regulatory content to be managed at a more granular level, providing more insight for decision-makers across industries.
TSO helps regulators make that shift, transforming regulatory content into accessible, digital-first formats that empower understanding, consistency, and innovation.
When regulation is clear, connected, and accessible, it stops being a barrier and becomes a catalyst for growth.
This was one of several key insights from our first roundtable. We’ll be continuing this important conversation through a forthcoming white paper and a series of future sessions.
If you are a regulator and would like to take part in the next discussion, we’d love to hear from you simply email us at: tsobd@tso.co.uk
