Those that are within the scope should take no action ahead of 30 April 2022 (when the GP contract requires self-declaration of 2020/21 NHS earnings for those individuals within scope), and commissioners should not seek to enforce this contractual requirement. Commissioners should also continue to not enforce the requirement for individuals within scope of the pay transparency provisions to have declared their 2019/20 earnings by 12 November 2021.
The amendments to the GP Contract Regulations have now been laid in parliament which, subject to the will of parliament, will remove this requirement.
