The Government will update guidance by end of Summer 2027 setting clear expectations for model provisions in DCOs. It prefers guidance over legislation to maintain flexibility, and will undertake stakeholder engagement to inform the design of standardised provisions. While the Taskforce recommended reinstating the Model Provisions through legislation, the Government's guidance-based approach still aims to reduce the treatment of every DCO as a bespoke exercise. The longer timeline (Summer 2027) gives space for comprehensive stakeholder input.
