The functions of the Secretary of State so far as they are exercisable in Scotland were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46).

By virtue of section 87(3) of the 1968 Act accommodation provided under that Act or under section 7 of the Mental Health (Scotland) Act 1984 (c. 36) is regarded as accommodation provided under Part III of the 1948 Act.
