EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make modifications to the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 (“2014 Regulations”) which are needed as a result of the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
The 2014 Regulations prescribe the kinds of activities that are regulated activities for the purposes of section 8 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008. Schedule 2 to those Regulations contains general exceptions to those regulated activities.
Regulation 2 to these Regulations inserts new paragraph 12 into Schedule 2 to the 2014 Regulations. This provides that any activity carried on for the purposes of testing for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in an individual, or for the presence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, is not a regulated activity. In addition, any activity carried on for the purposes of processing, analysing or reporting the results of a test for the presence of SARS-CoV-2, or for the presence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, is not a regulated activity.
No regulatory impact assessment has been prepared for these Regulations. An explanatory memorandum has been published alongside this instrument at www.legislation.gov.uk.
