EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations are made under section 186 of the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Act 2016 (“the Act”) which enables Welsh Ministers to make consequential amendments to primary legislation where it is appropriate for the purposes of the Act.

The Regulations deal with consequential amendments to primary legislation arising from the commencement of the provisions in Part 1 of the Act which relate to the regulation of care homes, secure accommodation services, residential family centre services and domiciliary support services in Wales. These are examples of what the Act refers to as “regulated services”.

All these are services which have been regulated under Part 2 of the Care Standards Act 2000 (“the 2000 Act”). Many of the amendments therefore replace references to one of the sorts of establishment or agency which were regulated under the 2000 Act and replace them with references to the appropriate sort of “regulated service” under the Act.

The Regulations also contain one amendment which is made under section 198 of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (“the 2014 Act”). Regulation 52 amends section 86 of the 2014 Act to remove wording which implies that accommodation provided, equipped or maintained by the Welsh Ministers for looked after children need necessarily be a children’s home.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
