Fish Health Inspectorate Hampton Implementation Review Report

The Hampton report, published in 2005, is one of the cornerstones of the Government's better regulation agenda and regulators have been working since to embed his principles in their approach to regulation. This review process is designed to identify where a regulator is on the road to full implementation and the issues each needs to address to become fully Hampton-compliant.

The Fish Health Inspectorate report is one of a series of reviews of regulatory bodies undertaken at the invitation of HM Treasury and focusing on the assessment of regulatory performance against the Hampton principles and the Macrory characteristics of effective inspection and enforcement. The review of the Fish Health Inspectorate was carried out in December 2008 by a team drawn from the Better Regulation Executive, from the Gambling Commission and Natural England.

The full report was published in July 2009 and can be found here.
