SOCIAL CARE

These Regulations make transitional provision in relation to support provided to a person pursuant to a carer’s assessment under section 12AA of the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 as a result of the repeal of this section and of section 3 of the Social Care (Self-directed) Support (Scotland) Act 2013 (“the 2013 Act”) by the Carers (Scotland) Act 2016 (“the Act”). They also make transitional provision in relation to services under section 22 of the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 (“the 1995 Act”) where a child has been assessed as in need because of the care that child provides to another person, as a result of the new framework for providing support to young carers under the Act.
