Inactive programmes

This section contains overview pages of historical policy & regulatory programmes, as well as their publications, that we are no longer updating.

This may be because we have replaced these programmes with others, or because we reached a decision or conclusion that is now reflected in our ongoing regulatory management. We have retained these pages and publications for historical reference purposes.
