Commentary on Sections
Part 2 - Functions in Relation to Children and Young Persons
Enforcement of care standards (Sections 26 to 29)
Section 27: Notice restricting accommodation at certain establishments
117.Section 27 inserts a new section 22B into the Care Standards Act 2000 to enable the Chief Inspector or, in Wales, the Welsh Ministers, (the registration authority) to impose a requirement preventing any new admissions of children to certain residential settings. Where the registration authority imposes such a requirement it is necessary for a notice to be served on each person who is registered in respect of the establishment concerned.
118.The notice must set out the reasons for the notice being served and must explain the right of appeal (subsection (3)); it may be time-limited; and it may be revoked (subsection (4)). The notice is subject to a right of appeal to a Tribunal provided for in section 28.
