I am led to understand that all UK clinical laboratories should be registered with the Care Quality Commission by now, either through their parent organisation or directly if they have no parent organisation or it is not itself registered
CQC have now publicised the following means to report any unregistered services
http://www.cqc.org.uk/public/news/report-unregistered-service
It is obviously in the interests of the laboratory medicine community to ensure that all providers are registered appropriately with CQC
Best wishes
