Whilst the CQC may have identified breaches of Regulation 5 in NHS trusts and not taken enforcement action, this information is not currently publically available.</p><p> </p><p>Additionally, the CQC does not regulate individuals and does not maintain a record of directors who are not fit and proper persons within the meaning of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014. The CQC’s responsibility in relation to this regulation is not to assess the fitness of directors but to check whether providers have the right systems and processes in place to assure themselves of fitness. As such there are no individuals that the CQC has taken enforcement action against under Regulation 5 working in the NHS. The CQC can take action against providers if they believe a provider is not robustly assured of whether an unfit person holds a directorship position.</p> answering member constituency Ludlow answering member printed Mr Philip Dunne question first answered 22/02/2017 10:05:11 answering member 1542 label Biography information for Philip Dunne
