Join us for this essential one-hour webinar exploring the Public Office (Accountability) Bill, to be known as “the Hillsborough Law” and its significant implications for local authorities, registered providers of social housing, and organisations carrying out health and safety and/or public functions.
We’ll discuss what this means in practice for your organisation, how it affects incident response and investigation procedures, and the practical steps needed to ensure compliance.
Whether you’re responsible for health and safety, governance, or managing public services, this webinar will provide clarity on your obligations and help you prepare for the changes ahead.
