Consultation on the future approach to quality regulation

Published 18 September 2025

Next steps

  1. Following the close of this consultation and consideration of responses, we will decide how to take forward the proposals.
  2. We will then conduct a second stage consultation – expected in autumn 2026 – on more detailed methods, guidance and associated technical details (for example, relating to the data). As part of that consultation, we will also set out proposed revisions to conditions B3 and B6, and Regulatory advice 20.

Question 19
