The Forensic Science Regulator has made a draft of the core part of the single statutory code available for informal comment. The regulator will use this informal feedback to refine the draft core code before the whole draft code becomes subject to formal consultation, in line with the Forensic Science Regulator Act 2021.

This draft can be found on the Regulator's website at Forensic Science Regulator: draft core statutory code for comment - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

The deadline for comments is 11 February 2022.
