Governance Principles

(Draft, structure only)

These principles are stated in no particular order, and are always open to debate. Governance is a trade-off between competing pressures - these principles are meant to help you decide which trade-offs are acceptable.

They are guidance, not The Law - there will always be edge cases, but you should expect to be challenged if you go your own way. The principles are to guide future and current governance - use your judgement, but in general, follow the principle of ‘Minimum Viable Governance’.

Appropriate boards and forums within your organisation should review and agree these principles on a 6 monthly basis.
