Recommendation 34

The OfS appears to have taken little responsibility for resolving these issues, despite frequent changes to what it expected to receive from DQB reports. While the OfS has the power to give the DQB general directions, it seems to have given very specific directions with little regard to the expertise and impartiality of the DQB. It is disappointing that the OfS apparently views its own convenience and control as more important than preserving independent oversight of quality and standards. Nor is it clear why the OfS acted in the way that it did.
