Enforcement decision tree
Our enforcement decision tree describes the process that guides how we make decisions about selecting and using appropriate enforcement powers.
Updates to this guidance in 2023
Since we published this guidance in 2017, we have:
- Improved the language to be more accessible, using clear, plain English.
- Replaced references to ‘inspectors’ with ‘colleagues’, to align with our new operational functions.
- Replaced the reference to ‘sector’ enforcement priorities with ‘enforcement priorities’ more generally.
