How we are run

Commissioners

Our formal governing board is made up of several commissioners and includes a Chairman. Commissioners are appointed by Communities and Local Government (CLG), following consultation with key stakeholders.

The commissioners meet six weekly and are responsible for:

  • setting our values, standards, strategy, and objectives
  • determining our budget and for the way we carry out our functions
  • monitoring the Commission's performance
  • accountability for the Commission's work
  • ensuring that we act within our statutory remits

The day-to-day operations of the organisation are managed by a team of managing directors led by the Chief Executive.
