answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/04/2024 answer text <p>Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists are not statutorily regulated, and there are no current plans to introduce statutory regulation for either profession.

There are currently two accredited registers related to hypnotherapy, and twelve accredited registers related to psychotherapy.</p><p>The Government keeps the professions subject to statutory regulation under review, and in 2022, published the consultation Healthcare regulation: deciding when statutory regulation is appropriate, which sought views on the criteria used to decide when regulation is necessary, and whether there are any unregulated professions that should be brought into statutory regulation. The Government will publish its response to the consultation in due course.</p> answering member constituency Pendle answering member printed Andrew Stephenson question first answered 23/04/2024 15:29:37 answering member 4044 label Biography information for Andrew Stephenson
