Department of Health and Social Care – OPEN CONSULTATION: Plans to bolster patient safety and boost support for frontline staff by streamlining the system for healthcare regulators

OPEN CONSULTATION: Plans to bolster patient safety and boost support for frontline staff by streamlining the system for healthcare regulators 
 
The government recently announced plans to modernise the regulatory system for healthcare professionals across the UK. These changes will give all regulators the powers to design their own regulatory processes to improve patient safety and help to streamline the system to enable staff to join the NHS frontline more easily.
 
It is currently seeking views from healthcare professionals and organisations on draft legislation to provide the General Medical Council (GMC) with powers to regulate physician associates (PAs) and anaesthesia associates (AAs) for the first time.
 
The consultation is online and will be open until 11:45pm on 16 May 2023.
