What the register cannot tell you: whether the clinicians are skilled, whether a plan is right for you, or what happens if something goes wrong. The licence is permission, not a quality mark. How to verify a licence yourself.

Each document is also published as a W3C Verifiable Credential, signed by us so a machine can confirm the file has not changed since we fetched it. The signature is ours, not the Ministry's, and the credential status says only whether we still stand behind the copy — not whether the authorisation is in force.
