Oliver McGowan draft code of practice

Provider: Gov.uk

The draft Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism code of practice outlines how health and care providers registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) can meet the legislative requirement introduced by the Health and Care Act 2022 to ensure staff receive training on learning disability and autism, appropriate to their role.

The public consultation on the draft code of practice will run for 12 weeks and closes on Tuesday 19 September 2023. Following this, the government will consider all consultation responses to inform any final changes to the draft code of practice.
