Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.
Recommendation (the Committee's words)
The regulatory relationship between government and TECs should be more explicitly acknowleged within a formal structure. This could be done by enhancing and restructuring the role of the Government Offices for the Regions, which should be required to produce an annual report on the operation, performance and governance of TECs within their regions. The Government Offices for the Regions should work within a published national regulatory framework. The TEC Assessors Committee might have a role in advising on this and in working with the Government Offices for the Region on its implementation.
