It should offer learning on the conditions that contribute to good regulation, and an understanding of what progress has been made by regulators in tackling inequalities, and, where possible, examples of innovative and creative approaches\. The review seeks to synthesise what is known about inequalities in regulation, and how this is conceptualised in other countries, as well as relevant evidence from other sectors\. We propose this is supplemented by interviews with key regulators, oversight and supervisory bodies \(including in other sectors/countries\) to explore effective approaches and conditions which have worked to protect and promote equality and rights in their work\.  The contract is awarded for total period of 5 months\. Total Awarded Value is maximum of all charges\. Contract Reference: CQC EP&amp;S 035
