The list was last updated in 2011 and a commitment was made to keeping it under review. There are now a number of countries and territories on the list who have made changes to their processes and would not now be considered to have at least as rigorous systems. An update is therefore required. Since the announcement in 2020, the Government prioritised making changes to the GRC process to make it modern and affordable.
