(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Prescribed Health Board Functions) (Scotland) Regulations 2014 to prescribe additional functions for the purpose of section 1(6) of the Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014 (“the 2014 Act”).
The 2014 Act requires Health Boards and local authorities to agree arrangements for joint working in their area in relation to certain of their statutory functions. These joint working arrangements will involve the delegation of functions by the local authority or by the Health Boards or both. A Health Board may, by virtue of Section 1(6) of the 2014 Act, only delegate functions that are prescribed in regulations.
The Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 confers functions on Health Boards. By virtue of the amendment made by Regulation 2, the functions of Health Boards in relation to a named person service for pre-school children (Part 4 of that Act) and the preparation of a child’s plan for certain pre-school children (Part 5 of that Act) may be delegated by a Health Board for the purposes of joint working arrangements under the 2014 Act.
