Publish inquiry, demands former RICS boss

Former RICS president Steve Williams has urged the organisation to publish the findings of its recent inquiry.

Williams was one of four non-executive directors dismissed in 2019 after raising concerns about the alleged suppression of the findings of an internal audit of the institution.

Williams said: “There has been quite a clamour for that report to be circulated. It’s very destructive if they don’t. It’s a member-led institution and it’s a member-owned institution. So I am not sure why governing councils who are comprised of members wouldn’t [have the same] membership appetite to reveal the report.”

A RICS spokesperson said: “The governing council is now in receipt of the independent review delivered by Alison Levitt QC and is in the process of carefully considering its findings and recommendations. We will issue a formal response once this process has concluded.”
