About the consultation
We have updated the code to reflect significant developments in legislation and case law since it was first published in 2011. We are running this consultation to gather feedback on the updated code.
We want to understand:
- whether our interpretation of the law is clearly articulated in the circumstances we have set out
- whether we have captured all new law and its associated impact
- how we can make the code as accessible and easy to understand as possible
You can use our online survey to give your feedback. The survey will be open from 2 October 2024 to 5pm on 3 January 2025.
