We understand that registered providers (RPs) are operating in a complex regulatory environment and it can be difficult to find the time and resource necessary to keep up with constantly evolving rules and practice.
To assist our RP clients in ensuring they are well governed, we have developed our governance support service. There are three tiers of service available:
- Basic – which provides access to a suite of model policies, registers, terms of reference and other documents which we ensure are kept up-to-date with current law and practice.
- Additional – in addition to the basic service, provides access to free governance advice every month and free training sessions over the year.
- Complete – as well as the additional service, includes an assessment of whether your RP is compliant with all relevant law for the purposes of the Governance & Financial Viability Standard.
Benefits to you
- Peace of mind
We know that reviewing policies and other documents to ensure they are up-to-date is understandably not always the highest priority work for our RP clients and this can cause residual worry and stress. Through our basic tier governance support service you will have instant access to a suite of documents that you know are continually kept up-to-date with current law and expert guidance by us.
- Cost savings
Under our basic tier of governance support service, you can have access to a suite of governance documents for a fixed cost. Under the additional tier, you will have access to legal advice on governance issues every month and training on topics of your choosing for a fixed cost. This can achieve cost certainty and cost savings as opposed to reviewing documents or paying for advice or training on an ad-hoc basis.
- Governance effectiveness
By allowing us to take responsibility for ensuring that your governance documents are up-to-date with current law and guidance, you can free up your people’s time to be more effective elsewhere. At the same time, you benefit from the strong foundation of good governance procedures.
- Compliance certainty
Through our compliance assessment as part of the complete tier governance support service we can provide you with the certainty you need to declare your compliance with all relevant law.
