The Science and Technology Committee reported about the lack of evidence: https://bit.ly/3iczTBW
The Government should require that any supposed homeopathic treatment be put through the same process as all other medicinal treatments to ensure they are safe and actually do what they're supposed to. Furthermore, to be a homeopathic practitioner there should be some form of required qualification as currently there are literally no requirements.
