Policy writing guidance and template

Please refer to the documents below when writing or reviewing a policy. You must use and populate the front cover template for your policies as this helps the public and staff to see how up-to-date the policy is and the approval process that the policy has followed. This information is also regularly sought during audits. Any questions, please speak to the Corporate Governance & Strategy team.
