All NHS organisations are mandated by the Department of Health under Review of Central Returns Steering Committee license ROCR/OR/0119/FT6/002: to carry out and submit an IG assessment using the toolkit by the 31 March each year.

From NHS CFHs point of view the Practice would not be considered a “trusted” organisat
