Chief Executive's performance was insufficiently challenged, requiring significant changes by interim chair.

Conclusion
The released extracts from the panel report on the former Chair made clear that one of her main failings was the absence of any evidence that the Chief Executive’s performance was subject to sufficient challenge. It is likely that the interim chair will have to bring about significant changes to the working practices of the CCRC. These changes are likely to involve undoing practices brought in by the current Chief Executive. (Conclusion, Paragraph 103)
