Following the responses to our consultation on the arrangements for withdrawing the Qualifications and Credit Framework regulatory arrangements (QCF rules), this letter confirms our final decisions and what happens next.

The QCF rules will be withdrawn and the unit bank closed on 30 September 2015. On 1 October 2015 we will introduce a new framework for all Ofqual regulated qualifications, the Regulated Qualifications Framework.
