(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order brings into force a number of provisions of the Care Standards Act 2000 relating to the regulation of Residential Family Centres, Voluntary Adoption Agencies, Fostering Agencies and Local Authority Adoption Services. This will have the effect of bringing these establishments and agencies within the regulatory framework of the Care Standards Act 2000, to be enforced in Wales by the National Assembly for Wales.
Further provisions relate to the coming into force of certain provisions of Part VIII of the Care Standards Act 2000 whose effect is to amend Part XII of the Children Act 1989 (“the 1989 Act”) on 1st February 2003. The effect of the amendments is to broaden the duty to monitor the welfare of children who board to all schools and colleges of further education which provide accommodation for children. The National Assembly for Wales replaces the local authority as the monitoring body. The provisions of sections 87A and 87B of the 1989 Act which allow for establishments to appoint an approved inspector to monitor their welfare provision is similarly extended to all schools and colleges of further education which provide accommodation for children.
