Listen "STARMER LAYS DOWN THE RULES"
Episode Synopsis
Partygate, revolving doors, freebiegate and cash for questions... stories about misbehaviour in public life are never far away, and this week the government has set out new plans for toughening up the rules. Doug Chalmers, who will chair the new Ethics and Integrity Commission, joins the Inside Briefing team for an exclusive interview.
From setting up new bodies to abolishing existing ones. A new report has been published on the state of the water industry - and it says that Ofwat, the water regulator, needs to be scrapped.
Plus: The reshuffle that wasn’t - and the one that was.
Hannah White presents.
With Tim Durrant and Matthew Gill.
