Last week I meet with the trading standards regional
coordinators in Cardiff. As an Institute
we recognise that we haven’t had enough engagement with front line services and
we need to find a better way of understanding their needs. The regional networks are assuming greater
significance in these austere times and the coordinators group provides an
excellent route for us get closer to services.
We had and open and refreshing discussion that included several moans
(on both sides!) but a real sense on wanting to work together going
forward. As for next steps the
coordinators have agreed to help us get TS Interlink right, both in terms of deliverables
and price, and work closely with us on the national trading standards
conversation. A really good meeting in a
very warm Cardiff
Leon Livermore became the chief executive of the Trading Standards Institute in April 2013. In his blog he reflects on the challenges and opportunities that he encounters for TSI and trading standards as a whole.
