EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the National Health Service Commissioning Board and Clinical Commissioning Groups (Responsibilities and Standing Rules) Regulations 2012 (S.I. 2012/2996) (“the 2012 Regulations”).

The Regulations –

  • make minor corrections to Part 1 of and Schedule 5 to the 2012 Regulations (regulations 2 and 6),

  • amend Part 6 of the 2012 Regulations to reflect increases to rates for NHS-funded Nursing Care payable by the relevant body (the National Health Service Commissioning Board or a clinical commissioning group) (regulation 3),

  • amend Part 6A of the 2012 Regulations, which deals with personal health budgets for NHS Continuing Healthcare and continuing care for children. Regulation 32B is amended to require a relevant body to grant a personal health budget to a person who requests one, unless it is not appropriate in the circumstances. Regulation 32B is also amended to extend the right of review of a decision to refuse a personal health budget to a decision to refuse the request in full or in part, and to a decision on which type of personal health budget is most appropriate (regulation 4), and

  • amend Part 8 of the 2012 Regulations by providing that duties as to choice of health service provider do not apply in the case of persons detained in or on temporary release from certain accommodation (regulation 5).

A copy of the impact assessment relating to the provisions of regulation 4 is available from the Department of Health, Richmond House, 79 Whitehall, SW1A 2NS and is published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside the instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk. No separate impact assessment has been prepared in respect of regulations 2, 3, 5 and 6, as minimal impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.

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.
