The Senedd Commission (“the Commission”) encourages a free and open culture in dealings between its employees and all third parties with whom it engages in the course of its business and legal relations. In particular, the Commission is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct and integrity in its activities in the UK and overseas, and recognises that effective and honest communication is essential if concerns about breaches or failures are to be properly dealt with.
This policy applies to all employees of the Commission, and all those made subject to it when providing services to the Commission including temporary workers, consultants, contractors and agents acting for, or on behalf of, the Commission within the UK and overseas. Every employee and associated person acting for, or on behalf of, the Commission is responsible for maintaining the highest standards of business conduct. Any breach of this policy is likely to constitute a serious disciplinary, contractual and criminal matter for the person or organisation concerned and may cause serious damage to the reputation and standing of the Commission.
