Andrew Twambley, the chairman of the Claims Standards Council has today announced his resignation.

In a statement to the executive and the members he said: "It is with regret that I have decided to resign but due to a change in my own business strategy I feel that I am not able to commit to the role full time.

"At this crucial time before the Compensation Act becomes live on 23 April, I think it is right that I let someone else who is better placed to represent the members to the government take on the role. "

A new interim chairman will be announced after Easter.
