Hampton Reviews
The Hampton Implementation Reviews assess how well regulators are following the Hampton principles of better regulation and the characteristics of effective sanctions defined by the Macrory review. They encourage best practice and continuous improvement among regulators.
The purpose of the reviews was to promote more effective and efficient regulatory activity, show where the recommendations of Hampton and Macrory were successfully implemented, and where there was still work to do. The reviews also helped regulators:
- increase openness and transparency
- highlight areas for development
- spread good practice to other regulators

How did the process work?
Regulators were reviewed under one of two models, depending on their size, scope and impact, to ensure that reviews are proportionate to the organisation.
