Managing potential conflicts of interest in relation to inspection work

This policy sets out how Estyn will manage potential conflicts of interest and minimise the risk of the perception of partiality in relation to inspection work. All conflicts and potential conflicts, whether real or perceived, should be disclosed and recorded as soon as possible and must be disclosed before confirmation of deployment of an individual by Estyn to an inspection. If an inspector is in any doubt, or requires further advice, they should contact Estyn as soon as they become aware of the potential conflict.
