Firearms Licensing Statutory Guidance
The Home Office is developing and updating statutory guidance on firearms and shotgun licensing in England, Wales, and Scotland, covering eligibility criteria, medical assessments, and technical specifications such as sound moderators. The guidance implements provisions from the Firearm and Shotgun Licensing (Domestic Violence) Bill and reflects evolving policy on medical markers and licensing controls. Current activity includes consultation responses on sound moderator regulation and mandatory medical assessment procedures.
