<p>Sir Keith Pearson’s review of medical revalidation, Taking Revalidation Forward
(TRF), was published in January 2017. Sir Keith reviewed evidence on the impact of
revalidation and concluded "that revalidation has already delivered significant
benefits".</p><p> </p><p>The review made recommendations to improve some aspects
of revalidation, for the benefit of both doctors and patients. Implementation of the
recommendations was overseen by the Revalidation Oversight Group, chaired by the General
Medical Council (GMC). The GMC has advised that all recommendations have been implemented,
except for those which may require legislative change.</p><p> </p><p>As recommended
by TRF, the Department is working with the GMC, NHS England and other stakeholders
to consider whether any amendments are needed to the Medical Profession (Responsible
Officer) Regulations 2010 and 2013.</p>
