Various government departments have responsibilities for regulating different activities that you or your business might be involved in. For example, a certain business/trading practice or marketing method may attract the attention of the Department for the Economy’s Trading Standards Service. Similarly, a workplace accident or incident can attract the attention of the Health and Safety Executive NI / local council (depending upon sector). In addition, environmental and pollution issues are the remit of the Northern Ireland Environment Agency and if you or your business are required to hold a professional qualification or licence/registration to operate (such as with the Information Commissioner’s Office), this can involve scrutiny from a professional or governing body.
