This consultation closed on 9 September 2019 and we would like to thank those who sent in replies for taking the time to respond.

We received over 1,400 responses from a wide range of stakeholders, including members of the public, industry and charities, both from the UK and abroad.

We’re now analysing the responses to understand what you have told us and consider what this means for the proposed policy.

We’re actively working on it and will provide further information once we are able to, but we cannot provide an exact date for this yet.
