Children and Families Act 2014

Wales

Part 5: Welfare of children

46.Section 90 repeals section 38 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1963 in relation to England and Wales only, to remove restrictions on the circumstances in which a local authority can issue a performance licence to a child under the age of 14.

47.Sections 91 to 95 make provision to protect children and young people from tobacco and nicotine addiction. Section 91 introduces an offence of “proxy purchasing” of tobacco products and cigarette papers. Sections 92 and 93 provide the Secretary of State with the power to make regulations to prohibit the sale of nicotine products to persons under the age of 18. Section 94 gives the Secretary of State the power to regulate tobacco packaging if he or she considers that regulations may contribute to reducing the risk of harm to or promoting the health or welfare of children. The Secretary of State must obtain the consent of Welsh Ministers before making regulations containing provision which would be within the legislative competence of the National Assembly for Wales. Section 95 amends smoke-free legislation to provide the Secretary of State, or the Welsh Ministers in relation to Wales, with the power to make regulations to provide for a private vehicle to be smoke-free when a person under the age of 18 is present.

48.Section 101 applies to England and Wales.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
