▤ Verbatim text from source document

The Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) has announced that they will no longer consent to be the designated quality body (DQB) after 31 March 2023.

The consultation is specifically on de-designation, not who should be the DQB in future. The Office for Students may consult on future arrangements.

We encourage you to read the consultation document before responding to the corresponding question in the survey.
