Harlequins' participation in this season's Heineken Cup is secure after tournament organisers ruled out taking any more action against the rugby club over the now-infamous fake blood injury scam.

European Rugby Cup says it is content with the punishments decided by its disciplinary committee.

The club was fined an unprecedented 300,000 euros ($A503,000) and disgraced coach Dean Richards was banned for three years after he was ruled responsible for the use of a blood capsule to fake an injury.
