2.2This research has three primary objectives:

â&#128;¢To develop an understanding of how the concept of seriousness in relation to misconduct is defined and applied by professional regulators, and to identify the considerations that influence that application;

â&#128;¢To achieve a clearer understanding of the similarities and differences in approaches across regulation and reasons for these;

â&#128;¢To describe the relationship between professional misconduct, enforcement actions and the statutory objectives of healthcare regulation.

We are looking for the Contract to commence around November 2019 with a final report to be completed by the end of May 2021. We anticipate the value of the Contract will be circa Â£130,000 including any expenses but exclusive of VAT
