National Infrastructure Commission
The NIC aims to be the UK’s most credible, forward-thinking and influential voice on infrastructure policy and strategy: Credible: producing reports and analysis of the highest quality, written in plain English, independent of government and all vested interests, and making clear recommendations based on rigorous evidence; and developing an evidence base which sets a gold standard in its quality and breadth. Forward-thinking: taking a strategic approach, which links long-term priorities with short-term action and considers infrastructure as a system, not as a collection of silos; maintaining an international perspective and engaging closely with leading edge expertise; and open to new approaches and ideas. Influential: building broad support for its analysis and recommendations, working across society, government, parliament and industry; producing work which is objective, fair and transparent; looking for deliverable solutions; and following up on recommendations. Our objectives are to support sustainable economic growth across all regions of the UK; improve competitiveness; and improve quality of life. Our work is built around delivering a National Infrastructure Assessment once in every Parliament, setting out the NIC’s assessment of long-term infrastructure needs with recommendations to the government. The first NIA was launched on 10 July 2018. We also undertake in-depth studies into the UK’s most pressing infrastructure challenges, making recommendations to the government and monitoring the government’s progress in delivering infrastructure projects and programmes recommended by the NIC.

Nrpsi
The National Register of Public Service Interpreters (NRPSI) is the UK’s independent voluntary regulator of professional interpreters. We maintain a public register of professional, qualified and accountable interpreters. The register is free of charge and searchable online. Every interpreter on our register has met the standards that we set for education, training and practice. The register only lists interpreters who have satisfied our entry criteria in terms of qualifications and experience. All interpreters on our register are subject to a Code of Professional Conduct and we may investigate any alleged breaches of the Code. Using the register to find an interpreter ensures that you not only employ a qualified practitioner but that the interpreter can be held accountable should their conduct or competence fall below the high standards expected of a Registered Professional Service Interpreter (RPSI). Using an unregistered interpreter means that you risk using someone who is unqualified and incompetent. Should you also have an unsatisfactory service from unregistered interpreter, you will not have access to a formal complaints procedure. Currently we have around 1,800 interpreters in about 100 languages on the register.

Rjc - Restorative Justice Council
The Restorative Justice Council (RJC) is the independent third sector membership body for the field of restorative practice. It provides quality assurance and a national voice advocating the widespread use of all forms of restorative practice, including restorative justice. The RJC’s vision is of a restorative society where everyone has access to safe, high quality restorative practice wherever and whenever it is needed. Restorative practice is effective in building strong relationships and can help prevent and manage conflict in schools, children’s services, workplaces, hospitals, prisons and communities. In criminal justice, it is widely known as restorative justice. Restorative justice gives victims the chance to meet or communicate with their offenders to explain the real impact of the crime - it empowers victims by giving them a voice. It also holds offenders to account for what they have done and helps them to take responsibility and make amends. Government research demonstrates that restorative justice provides an 85 per cent victim satisfaction rate, and a 14 per cent reduction in the frequency of reoffending. The RJC's role is to set and champion clear standards for restorative practice. It ensures quality and supports those in the field to build on their capacity and accessibility. At the same time, the RJC raises public awareness and confidence in restorative processes. The ultimate aim of the RJC is to drive take-up and to enable safe, high quality restorative practice to develop and thrive.

The Promise Scotland
In February 2020 the Independent Care Review called for a radical overhaul of Scotland’s ‘care system’ publishing for the first time, the human and economic cost of the current provision and its failures. Unprecedented in scope, methodology and model, the Care Review listened to more than 5,500 experiences. Over half of those were children and young people with experience of the ‘care system’, adults who have lived in care and their families. The rest came from the unpaid and paid workforce. The Promise is the body responsible for implementing this work and will oversee the delivery of change, as envisaged by the Care Review, and demanded by generations of voices of care experienced people and their families.

Communications Consumer Panel
The Communications Consumer Panel, established by the Communications Act 2003, is a group of independent experts with direct sectoral experience, supported by a small team. We ensure the citizen and consumer voice is represented in communications policy development. The Panel’s job is to ensure that the sector works for consumers, citizens and micro businesses - and in particular people who may be in a more vulnerable position in society. The Panel’s work is diverse and broad, covering not just telecommunications such as broadband, spectrum (mobile and TV airwaves) and mobile, but also post, broadcasting and digital inclusion. The sector presents different challenges to those in utilities sectors such as energy and water; in many ways it is closest to financial services in its complexity, vast range of providers and related competitiveness.
