Thursday 17th July 2025

Asked by: Alan Mak (Conservative - Havant)

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if he will publish a list of government bodies qualifying as regulators by sponsoring department.

Answered by Justin Madders - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade)

Yes. While there is no standard definition of a regulator, we will publish a list of all regulators that can be considered as meeting various possible definitions, and will keep it updated in response to feedback. This will be published by September on the Regulation for Growth GOV.UK page: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/regulation-for-growth.
