Publishing of an electronic Annual Report containing an overview of ARB’s activities and its annual financial statements;
Making efficient and appropriate use of social media tools to support its role and increase awareness of the Register;
Making available an accessible, up to date, user-friendly website;
Producing bi-annual reports on key activities, trends and performance indicators made publicly available to ensure its activities are transparent, accountable and target-driven;
Publishing Board members’ and Registrar’s expenses, along with Board member biographies and a Register of Interests; and
Meeting Government expectations, including the publication of all ARB payments in excess of £500, recruitment guidelines and spending controls.
