The Ethics and Integrity Commission (EIC) replaced the Committee on Standards in Public Life on 13 October 2025. This blog will therefore no longer be updated, but you can find future blogs, current information and updates on the EIC website.
In this blog, Lord Evans, looks forward to the government's response to the Committee's 2021 report as a real opportunity to repair and update the way standards are maintained and promoted in central government.
In this blog, Ewen Fergusson, the independent member who co-led the ‘Leading in Practice’ review, reflects on the response to the report.

In this guest blog, Paul Hoey, co-founder of Hoey Associates, writes about how to improve the local government standards framework.
