Description

In November 2025 the MHRA announced that it was closing its RegulatoryConnect program less than 2 years since it was launched in April 2024.  The portal was originally set up to enable companies to view live authorization details and track the application status for a filing without needing to contact the MHRA itself.  The MHRA stated that the program “no longer offers value for money for UK taxpayers”.

Julian Beach, Executive Director for healthcare quality and access at the MHRA, said companies would still be able to track their applications in the existing portal.

The MHRA said the technological needs of the agency would be revisited when it develops its new multi-year strategy, to be launched in 2026, to define its “direction, mission, values and focus through to 2030. RegulatoryConnect - GOV.UK
