25After section 51 insert—
“51A(1)Subject to subsection (2), an adoption agency which is—
(a)a local authority shall, within such period after the coming into force of this section as the Secretary of State may by order direct;
(b)an approved adoption society may,
prepare a scheme (in this section and in section 51B referred to as an “adoption allowances scheme”) for the payment by the agency of allowances to any person who has adopted, or intends to adopt, a child in any case where arrangements for the adoption were made, or as the case may be are to be made, by the agency.
(2)The Secretary of State may make regulations as respects adoption allowances schemes; and without prejudice to the generality of this subsection such regulations may in particular make provision as to—
(a)the procedure to be followed by an agency in determining whether a person should be paid an allowance;
(b)the circumstances in which an allowance may be paid;
(c)the factors to be taken into account in determining the amount of an allowance;
(d)the procedure for review, variation and termination of allowances;
(e)the information about allowances which is to be supplied by an agency to a person who intends to adopt a child; and
(f)the procedure to be followed by an agency in drawing up, in making alterations to, or in revoking and replacing, an adoption allowances scheme.
(3)Section 51(1) shall not apply to any payment made in accordance with an adoption allowances scheme (including any such payment made by virtue of section 51B).
After the coming into force of section 51A—
(a)no scheme for the payment of allowances shall be submissible under subsection (5) of section 51; and
(b)a scheme which has been approved under that subsection of that section shall forthwith be revoked under subsection (6)(b) of that section, so however that where a person was before its revocation receiving payments made in accordance with that scheme he may continue to receive payments so made which, had there been no revocation, would have fallen to be made to him or he may agree to receive, instead of the continued payments, payments made in accordance with an adoption allowances scheme.”.
