‘Trust, assurance and safety: the regulation of health professionals in the 21 st century’ Background to the White Paper’s publication: The Shipman report The Donaldson review of medical regulation The ‘Foster review’ of non-medical regulation The White Paper – February 2005

Key messages in the White Paper  Affirmation of the vast majority of health professionals  Need to make systemic changes alongside regulation reforms - e.g. clinical governance, coroner’s systems, death certification systems, controlled drugs, complaints systems

White Paper reforms to regulation Greater consistency between regulators Fitness to practise processes Standard of proof Common standards?

Improving the structure of the regulators Appointed Council members Smaller Councils Separation of strategic function from decision-making White Paper reforms to regulation

Revalidation Positive demonstration of fitness to practise every 5 years 3 groups Employees of an approved body – part of appraisal and management systems Self-employed contractors – revalidation in collaboration between NHS commissioner and regulator Others – revalidation carried out by the regulator White Paper reforms to regulation

Revalidation – key questions Risk? Standards? Assessment against those standards? Cost? Set up a professional liaison group (PLG) to look at continuing fitness to practise more broadly. Also looking at post-registration qualifications and marking the Register. White Paper reforms to regulation

Regulation of aspirant groups No additional regulators – new groups normally be regulated by HPC Psychologists, healthcare scientists, psychotherapists and counsellors Also mentioned the regulation of acupuncture, traditional chinese medicine and herbal medicine Establishing a working group to look at regulation of other groups, including criteria and priorities White Paper reforms to regulation
