The Government will issue new guidance by Summer 2026 encouraging the use of "minded to" letters during post-examination decision-making delays.

While the Taskforce recommended legislation, the Government's approach via guidance still advances the core objective of improving transparency during decision-making delays. The effectiveness will depend on the strength of the guidance language and ministerial willingness to follow it.
