Undercover crackdown on clinics

A health watchdog is to use undercover inspectors to crack down on "rogue providers" of cosmetic procedures such as laser therapies.

The Healthcare Commission, which regulates the independent sector as well as the NHS, has been given covert surveillance powers by parliament.

It will allow the commission to monitor the estimated 3,000 unregistered laser and light therapy providers in England.

It will help ensure patients receive safe and professional care, it said.
