Conclusion
However, the Government is not moving quickly enough in introducing such a system. At present, individuals without any formal training can carry out potentially harmful interventions, placing the public at risk. Successive Governments have failed to act swiftly enough to legislate in this area allowing further harms to occur. The Government’s announcement of yet another consultation will cause more delays. This lack of timely action is fostering complacency in self-regulation within the industry and is compromising patient safety. (Conclusion, Paragraph 69)
