It is for each public authority to ensure that their organisation’s Code complies with the requirements set out in Chapter 2, Clause 10 of the Bill. This includes providing information about how staff can make protected disclosures and make complaints about the conduct of an organisation.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when her Department plans to publish the revised MCA Rescue Boat Code.
The MCA remains committed to the development of the replacement to the Rescue Boat Code and continues to actively engage with Rescue Boat Organisations, HM Coastguard, and other industry stakeholders to finalise the draft as we work toward setting an implementation date.
Further stakeholder engagement sessions were held with Rescue Boat Organisations in June 2026 in response to feedback received from industry to the draft circulated on 18th May 2026, and to identify and close any remaining drafting issues. These sessions were positively received by industry and a revised draft was circulated to targeted industry stakeholders in August 2026 with feedback expected during September 2026.
The MCA will publish the replacement to the rescue boat code as the Search and Rescue Craft Annex to Workboat Code Edition 3, as soon as practicable, once these processes have been completed.
To ask His Majesty's Government which existing codes of ethical or professional conduct they obtained and considered when preparing clause 10 of the Public Office (Accountability) Bill; and whether they will place copies of, or links to, those codes in the Library of the House.
To ask His Majesty's Government which existing codes of ethical or professional conduct they obtained and considered when preparing clause 10 of the Public Office (Accountability) Bill; and whether they will place copies of, or links to, those codes in the Library of the House.
The provisions set out in the Bill have been developed on the basis of the Seven Principles of Public Life (the Nolan Principles). Codes must be used to drive ethical behaviour in a public authority and to be embedded in all aspects of their organisation’s work - the delivery of public services.
Public authorities will be required to take steps to make their staff aware of the Code and the consequences of failing to comply with it. Public authorities are required to publish their respective Code of Ethical Conduct.
To ask His Majesty's Government how many of the public authorities they expect to be subject to clause 10 of the Public Office (Accountability) Bill already have a code of ethical or professional conduct applying to their public officials.
To ask His Majesty's Government how many of the public authorities they expect to be subject to clause 10 of the Public Office (Accountability) Bill already have a code of ethical or professional conduct applying to their public officials.
The requirement to adopt a Code of Ethical Conduct is intended to sit alongside, not replace, existing ethical or candour frameworks.
In many cases public authorities will be able to satisfy the requirement by updating or amending existing codes to meet the minimum standards. For example, the Civil Service Code will act as the Code of Ethical Conduct for the Civil Service.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Care Quality Commission has any provision equivalent to Ofsted's special circumstances provision to enable continuity of placement for a young person transitioning to adulthood.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Care Quality Commission has any provision equivalent to Ofsted's special circumstances provision to enable continuity of placement for a young person transitioning to adulthood.
Young people aged under 18 years old may, in certain circumstances, be accommodated in services registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Whether registration with the CQC is appropriate depends on the facts of the individual case, the nature of the service being provided, and the relevant statutory and regulatory framework. Guidance is available to providers and local authorities on the respective regulatory responsibilities of Ofsted and the CQC, including the joint Ofsted and CQC guidance, Children's homes and health care: registration with Ofsted or the CQC, which sets out the circumstances in which services should be registered with Ofsted, the CQC, or both regulators.
The CQC does not have a published provision directly equivalent to Ofsted's special circumstances policy. The CQC regulates services under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated regulations, within the wider framework for adult care and support established by the Care Act 2014. Registration requirements are determined by the nature of the service and whether regulated activities are being provided.
The Department of Health and Social Care is working with the Department for Education, Ofsted, and the CQC to explore how regulation can support and improve transitions into adult services, including a project with the Social Care Institute for Excellence that will develop national best practice guidance and training.
