Department of Health & Social Care Letter Jan 2022 Re: BILD and the RRN

 

BILD Act Certification and the RRN Standards are NOT Mandatory

This is a letter received from the Department of Health & Social Care which is a correspondence between two Members of Parliament in relation to BILD Act Certification and the RRN Standards.

It clarifies the issue with regards to whether or not it is mandatory for service providers to only use training providers registered with the RRN or certificated thorough BILD Act Certification.

The person who the letter was sent to has asked for their name to be redacted, which I have respected, but it is the content of the letter that is the most important thing.
