Our Policy Campaigns :


CTSI leads on a wide range of Consumer Protection issues and other policy-areas that our members - all Trading Standards professionals from around the country - have raised as topics of particular concern.

Our Policy Campaigns have achieved considerable success - not only in stimulating public debate but also in influencing UK-wide legislation, and helping to shape the political agenda across the United kingdom's four Nations. If there is a subject you would like us to cover, or particular policy areas you want us to investigate further, please email CTSI's Policy Team at [email protected]
