Plain language editing
Why it matters
Plain language is a communication approach that makes complex information clear, accessible and easy to act on.
For public organisations, it supports transparency, accountability and more effective policy implementation. For private firms with regulatory obligations, it reduces compliance risk, improves internal understanding and strengthens credibility with regulators and partners. In both contexts, plain language is a strategic tool that supports legal clarity, operational consistency and regulatory alignment.
