The Regulators Code came into effect on 6 April 2014. It provides a clear framework for how regulators should undertake their duties.

Although no formal assessment has been made, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has taken extensive views from business and is working collaboratively with regulators to support the improvements expected by the Code. A reporting duty on the effect of the Code will be commenced in due course.
