The Regulated Health Professions Act (A new legislative framework)

• This “umbrella legislation” will replace the existing profession-specific Acts with a common legislative framework for the regulation of all self-governing health professions in Saskatchewan. The Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA) provides for a minimum regulatory framework across all professions while recognizing that each profession is unique and requires profession-specific subordinate regulations.
• The RHPA received Royal Assent on May 13, 2025, but has not yet come into force.  Implementation will occur over several years and will involve ongoing consultation and collaboration with the Ministry of Health and other Saskatchewan health regulators to develop supporting regulations, bylaws, policies and processes. 
• Currently, all existing profession-specific legislation (including The Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists Act) remains in place.  There are no immediate changes impacting the day-to-day practice of regulated health professions at this time.
• Once the regulations and bylaws are complete, current health regulatory legislation will be repealed, and replaced by the RHPA. Notification will be provided to registrants.
