duty, Monitor must have regard to the likely future demand for health care services.3Monitor must exercise its functions with a view to preventing anti-competitive behaviour in the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS which is against the interests of people who use such services.4Monitor must exercise its functions with a view to enabling health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS to be provided in an integrated way where it considers that this would—aimprove the quality of those services (including the outcomes that are achieved from their provision) or the efficiency of their provision,breduce inequalities between persons with respect to their ability to access those services, orcreduce inequalities between persons with respect to the outcomes achieved for them by the provision of those services.5Monitor must exercise its functions with a view to enabling the provision of health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS to be integrated with the provision of health-related services or social care services where it considers that this would—aimprove the quality of those health care services (including the outcomes that are achieved from their provision) or the efficiency of their provision,breduce inequalities between persons with respect to their ability to access those health care services, orcreduce inequalities between persons with respect to the outcomes achieved for them by the provision of those health care services.6Monitor must, in carrying out its duties under subsections (4) and (5), have regard to the way in which—athe National Health Service Commissioning Board carries out its duties under section 13N of the National Health Service Act 2006, andbclinical commissioning groups carry out their duties under section 14Z1 of that Act.7Monitor must secure that people who use health care services, and other members of the public, are involved to an appropriate degree in decisions that Monitor makes about the exercise of its functions (other than decisions it makes about the exercise of its functions in a particular case).8Monitor must obtain advice appropriate for enabling it effectively to discharge its functions from persons who (taken together) have a broad range of professional expertise in—athe prevention, diagnosis or treatment of illness (within the meaning of the National Health Service Act 2006), andbthe protection or improvement of public health.9Monitor must exercise its functions in a manner consistent with the performance by the Secretary of State of the duty under section 1(1) of the National Health Service Act 2006 (promotion of comprehensive health service).10Monitor must not exercise its functions for the purpose of causing a variation in the proportion of health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS that is provided by persons of a particular description if that description is by reference to—awhether the persons in question are in the public or (as the case may be) private sector, orbsome other aspect of their status.11In this section—health-related services” means services that may have an effect on people's health but are not health care services or social care services;social care services” means services that are provided in pursuance of the social services functions of local authorities (within the meaning of the Local Authority Social Services Act 1970).Secretary of State's guidance on duty under section 62(9)631The Secretary of State may, for the purpose of assisting Monitor to comply with its duty under section 62(9), publish guidance on—athe objectives specified in the mandate published under section 13A of the National Health Service Act 2006 which the Secretary of State considers to be relevant to Monitor's exercise of its functions, andbthe Secretary of State's reasons for considering those objectives to be relevant to Monitor's exercise of its functions.2In exercising its functions, Monitor must have regard to guidance under subsection (1).3Where the Secretary of State publishes guidance under subsection (1), the Secretary of State must lay a copy of the published guidance before Parliament.4The Secretary of State—amay revise guidance under subsection (1), andbif the Secretary of State does so, must publish the guidance as revised and lay it before Parliament.General duties: supplementary641This section applies for the purposes of this Part.2Anti-competitive behaviour” means behaviour which would (or would be likely to) prevent, restrict or distort competition and a reference to preventing anti-competitive behaviour includes a reference to eliminating or reducing the effects (or potential effects) of the behaviour.3Health care” means all forms of health care provided for individuals, whether relating to physical or mental health, with a reference in this Part to health care services being read accordingly; and for the purposes of this Part it does not matter if a health care service is also an adult social care service (as to which, see section 65).4The NHS” means the comprehensive health service continued under section 1(1) of the National Health Service Act 2006, except the part of it that is provided in pursuance of the public health functions (within the meaning of that Act) of the Secretary of State or local authorities.5A reference to the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS is a reference to their provision for those purposes in accordance with that Act.6Nothing in section 62 requires Monitor to do anything in relation to the supply to persons who provide health care services of goods that are to be provided as part of those services.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191292"/>Power to give Monitor functions relating to adult social care services651Regulations may provide for specified functions of Monitor also to be exercisable in relation to adult social care services.2Any regulations under this section must apply in relation to England only.3The regulations may amend this Part.4“Adult social care”—aincludes all forms of personal care and other practical assistance provided for individuals who, by reason of age, illness, disability, pregnancy, childbirth, dependence on alcohol or drugs, or any other similar circumstances, are in need of such care or other assistance, butbdoes not include anything

2000.Matters to have regard to in exercise of functions661In exercising its functions, Monitor must have regard, in particular, to the need to maintain the safety of people who use health care services.2Monitor must, in exercising its functions, also have regard to the following matters in so far as they are consistent with the matter referred to in subsection (1)—athe desirability of securing continuous improvement in the quality of health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS and in the efficiency of their provision,bthe need for commissioners of health care services for the purposes of the NHS to ensure that the provision of access to the services for those purposes operates fairly,cthe need for commissioners of health care services for the purposes of the NHS to ensure that people who require health care services for those purposes are provided with access to them,dthe need for commissioners of health care services for the purposes of the NHS to make the best use of resources when doing so,ethe desirability of persons who provide health care services for the purposes of the NHS co-operating with each other in order to improve the quality of health care services provided for those purposes,fthe need to promote research into matters relevant to the NHS by persons who provide health care services for the purposes of the NHS,gthe need for high standards in the education and training of health care professionals who provide health care services for the purposes of the NHS, andhwhere the Secretary of State publishes a document for the purposes of section 13E of the National Health Service Act 2006 (improvement of quality of services), any guidance published by the Secretary of State on the parts of that document which the Secretary of State considers to be particularly relevant to Monitor's exercise of its functions.3Where the Secretary of State publishes guidance referred to in subsection (2)(h), the Secretary of State must lay a copy of the published guidance before Parliament.4The Secretary of State—amay revise the guidance, andbif the Secretary of State does so, must publish the guidance as revised and lay it before Parliament.Conflicts between functions671In a case where Monitor considers that any of its general duties conflict with each other, it must secure that the conflict is resolved in the manner it considers best.2Monitor must act so as to secure that there is not, and could not reasonably be regarded as being, a conflict between—aits exercise of any of its functions under Chapter 5 of Part 2 of the National Health Service Act 2006 (regulation of NHS foundation trusts) or under sections 111 and 113 of this Act (imposition of licence conditions on NHS foundation trusts during transitional period) or under paragraph 17 of Schedule 8 to this Act (accounts of NHS foundation trusts), andbits exercise of any of its other functions.3Monitor must ignore the functions it has under sections 111 and 113 when exercising—aits functions under Chapter 2 (competition);bits functions under Chapter 4 (pricing).4If Monitor secures the resolution of a conflict between its general duties in a case that comes within subsection (5), or that Monitor considers is otherwise of unusual importance, it must publish a statement setting out—athe nature of the conflict,bthe manner in which it decided to resolve it, andcits reasons for deciding to resolve it in that manner.5A case comes within this subsection if it involves—aa matter likely to have a significant impact on persons who provide health care services for the purposes of the NHS;ba matter likely to have a significant impact on people who use health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS;ca matter likely to have a significant impact on the general public in England (or in a particular part of England);da major change in the activities Monitor carries on;ea major change in the standard conditions of licences under Chapter 3 (see section 94).6Where Monitor is required to publish a statement under subsection (4), it must do so as soon as reasonably practicable after making its decision.7The duty under subsection (4) does not apply in so far as Monitor is subject to an obligation not to publish a matter that needs to be included in the statement.8Every annual report of Monitor must include—aa statement of the steps it has taken in the financial year to which the report relates to comply with the duty under subsection (2), andba summary of the manner in which, in that financial year, Monitor has secured the resolution of conflicts between its general duties arising in cases of the kind referred to in subsection (5).9Monitor's general duties for the purposes of this section are its duties under sections 62 and 66.Duty to review regulatory burdens681Monitor must keep the exercise of its functions under review and secure that in exercising its functions it does not—aimpose burdens which it considers to be unnecessary, orbmaintain burdens which it considers to have become unnecessary.2In keeping the exercise of its functions under review, Monitor must have regard to such principles as appear to it to represent best regulatory practice.3Subsection (1) does not require the removal of a burden which has become unnecessary where its removal would, having regard to all the circumstances, be impractical or disproportionate.4Monitor must from time to time publish a statement setting out—awhat it proposes to do pursuant to subsection (1) in the period to which the statement relates,bwhat it has done pursuant to that subsection since publishing the previous statement, andcwhere a burden relating to the exercise of the function which has become unnecessary is maintained pursuant to subsection (3), the reasons why removal of the burden would, having regard to all the circumstances, be impractical or disproportionate.5The first statement—amust be published as soon as practicable after the commencement of this section, andbmust relate to the period of 12 months beginning with the date of publication.6A subsequent statement—amust be published during the period to which the previous statement related or as soon as reasonably practicable after that period, andbmust relate to the period of 12 months beginning with the end of the previous period.7Monitor must, in exercising its functions, have regard to the statement that is in force at the time in question.8Monitor may revise a statement before or during the period to which it relates; and, if it does so, it must publish the revision as soon as reasonably practicable.Duty to carry out impact assessments691This section applies where Monitor is proposing to do something that it considers would be likely—ato have a significant impact on persons who provide health care services for the purposes of the NHS;bto have a significant impact on people who use health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS;cto have a significant impact on the general public in England (or in a particular part of England);dto involve a major change in the activities Monitor carries on;eto involve a major change in the standard conditions of licences under Chapter 3 (see section 94).2But this section does not apply to—athe carrying out by Monitor of an analysis of how markets involving the provision of health care services are operating, orbthe exercise of functions under or by virtue of Chapter 2.3Nor does this section apply if it appears to Monitor that the urgency of the matter makes compliance with this section impracticable or inappropriate.4Before implementing the proposal, Monitor must either—acarry out and publish an assessment of the likely impact of implementation, orbpublish a statement setting out its reasons for concluding that it does not need to carry out an assessment under paragraph (a).5The assessment must set out Monitor's explanation of how the discharge of its general duties (within the meaning of section 67)—awould be secured by implementation of the proposal, butbwould not be secured by the exercise of functions that Monitor has by virtue of section 72 or 73.6The assessment may take such form, and relate to such matters, as Monitor may determine; and in determining the matters to which the assessment is to relate, Monitor must have regard to such general guidance on carrying out impact assessments as it considers appropriate.7The assessment must specify the consultation period within which representations with respect to the proposal may be made to Monitor; and for that purpose the consultation period must not be less than 28 days beginning with the day after that on which the assessment is published under subsection (4).8Monitor may not implement the proposal unless the consultation period has ended.9Where Monitor is required (apart from this section) to consult about, or afford a person an opportunity to make representations about, a proposal that comes within subsection (1), the requirements of this section—aare in addition to the other requirement, butbmay be met contemporaneously with it.10Every annual report of Monitor must set out—aa list of the assessments carried out under this section during the financial year to which the report relates, andba summary of the decisions taken during that year in relation to proposals to which assessments carried out during that year or a previous financial year relate.Information701Information obtained by, or documents, records or other items produced to, Monitor in connection with any of its functions may be used by Monitor in connection with any of its other functions.2For the purposes of exercising a function under this Part, the Secretary of State may request Monitor to provide the Secretary of State with such information as the Secretary of State may specify.3Monitor must comply with a request under subsection (2).<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191293"/>Failure to perform functions711This section applies if the Secretary of State considers that Monitor is failing, or has failed, to perform any function of Monitor's, other than a function it has by virtue of section 72 or 73, and that the failure is significant.2The Secretary of State may direct Monitor to perform such of those functions, and in such manner and within such period, as the direction specifies.3But the Secretary of State may not give a direction under subsection (2) in relation to the performance of functions in a particular case.4If Monitor fails to comply with a direction under subsection (2), the Secretary of State may—aperform the functions to which the direction relates, orbmake arrangements for some other person to perform them on the Secretary of State's behalf.5Where the Secretary of State exercises a power under subsection (2) or (4), the Secretary of State must publish the reasons for doing so.6For the purposes of this section—aa failure to perform a function includes a failure to perform it properly, andba failure to perform a function properly includes a failure to perform it consistently with what the Secretary of State considers to be the interests of the health service in England or (as the case may be) with what otherwise appears to the Secretary of State to be the purpose for which it is conferred; and “the health service” has the same meaning as in the National Health Service Act 2006.CHAPTER 2CompetitionFunctions under the Competition Act 1998721The functions referred to in subsection (2) are concurrent functions of Monitor and the Office of Fair Trading.2The functions are those that the Office of Fair Trading has under Part 1 of the Competition Act 1998, other than sections 31D(1) to (6),

of Fair Trading nor Monitor may exercise in relation to any matter functions which are exercisable concurrently by virtue of this section if functions which are so exercisable have been exercised in relation to that matter by the other.6Section 117 of the Enterprise Act 2002 (offences of supplying false or misleading information) as applied by section 180 of that Act is to have effect so far as relating to functions exercisable by Monitor by virtue of this section as if the references in section 117(1)(a) and (2) to the Office of Fair Trading included references to Monitor.Competition functions: supplementary741No objection may be taken to anything done by or in relation to Monitor under the Competition Act 1998 or Part 4 of the Enterprise Act 2002 on the ground that it should have been done by or in relation to the Office of Fair Trading.2Subject to subsection (3), sections 62 and 66 (general duties of Monitor) do not apply in relation to anything done by Monitor in the carrying out of its functions by virtue of section 72 or 73.3In the carrying out of any functions by virtue of section 72 or 73, Monitor may nevertheless have regard to any of the matters in respect of which a duty is imposed by section 62 or 66 if it is a matter to which the Office of Fair Trading is entitled to have regard in the carrying out of those functions.4In section 9E of the Company

procurement;bprotect and promote the right of patients to make choices with respect to treatment or other health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS;cdo not engage in anti-competitive behaviour which is against the interests of people who use such services.2Requirements imposed by regulations under this section apply to an arrangement for the provision of goods and services only if the value of the consideration attributable to the services is greater than that attributable to the goods.3Regulations under this section may, in particular, impose requirements relating to—acompetitive tendering for the provision of services;bthe management of conflicts between the interests involved in commissioning services and the interests involved in providing them.4The regulations may provide for the requirements imposed, or such of them as are prescribed, not to apply in relation to arrangements of a prescribed description.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191295"/>Requirements under section 75: investigations, declarations and directions761Regulations under section 75 may confer on Monitor—aa power to investigate a complaint that the National

the Enterprise Act 2002 (completed and anticipated mergers), each of the following cases is to be treated as being (in so far as it would not otherwise be) a case in which two or more enterprises cease to be distinct enterprises.2The first case is where the activities of two or more NHS foundation trusts cease to be distinct activities.3The second case is where the activities of one or more NHS foundation trusts and the activities of one or more businesses cease to be distinct activities.4Where the Office of Fair Trading decides to carry out an investigation under Part 3 of the Enterprise Act 2002 of a matter involving an NHS foundation trust, it must as soon as reasonably practicable notify Monitor.5As soon as reasonably practicable after receiving a notification under subsection (4), Monitor must provide the Office of Fair Trading with advice on—athe effect of the matter under investigation on benefits (in the form of those within section 30(1)(a) of the Enterprise

considers appropriate.6In subsections (2) and (3), a reference to the activities of an NHS foundation trust or a business includes a reference to part of its activities.7In this section, “enterprise” and “business” each have the same meaning as in Part 3 of the Enterprise Act 2002.Co-operation with the Office of Fair Trading801Monitor and the Office of Fair Trading must co-operate with each other in the exercise of their respective functions under the Competition Act 1998 and the Enterprise Act 2002.2In particular each must give the other—asuch information in its possession as the other may

services are provided.4But different standard conditions must not be determined for different descriptions of licences to the extent that the description is framed by reference to the nature of the licence holder unless Monitor considers that at least one of requirements 1 and 2 is met.5Requirement 1 is that—athe standard conditions in question relate to the governance of licence holders, andbit is necessary to determine different standard conditions in order to take account of differences in the status of different licence holders.6Requirement 2 is that it is necessary to determine different standard conditions for the purpose of ensuring that the burdens to which different licence holders are subject as a result of holding a licence are broadly consistent.7Before determining the first

further provision about enforcement undertakings) has effect.Guidance as to use of enforcement powers1081Monitor must publish guidance about how it intends to exercise its functions under sections 105 and 106 and Schedule 11.2Monitor may revise the guidance and, if it does so, must publish the guidance as revised.3Monitor must consult such persons as it considers appropriate before publishing or revising the guidance.4Guidance relating to Monitor's functions under section 105 must include information about—athe circumstances in which Monitor is likely to impose a discretionary requirement,bthe circumstances in which Monitor may not impose a discretionary requirement,cthe matters likely to be taken into account by Monitor in determining the amount of any variable monetary penalty to be imposed (including, where relevant, any discounts for voluntary reporting of breaches in respect of which a penalty may be imposed), anddrights to make representations and rights of appeal.5Monitor must have regard to the guidance or (as the case may be) revised guidance in exercising its functions under sections 105 and 106 and Schedule 11.Publication of enforcement action1091Monitor must include information about the following in its annual report—athe cases in which a discretionary requirement has been imposed during the financial year to which the report relates, andbthe cases in which an enforcement undertaking has been accepted during that financial year.2But Monitor must not include information which it is satisfied is—acommercial information the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm the legitimate business interests of the person to whom it relates;binformation relating to the private affairs of an individual the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm that person's interests.3The reference in subsection (1)(a) to cases in which a discretionary requirement has been imposed does not include a reference to a case where a discretionary requirement has been imposed but overturned on appeal.Notification of enforcement action1101As soon as reasonably practicable after imposing a discretionary requirement or accepting an enforcement undertaking Monitor must notify the following of that fact—athe National Health Service Commissioning Board,bsuch clinical commissioning groups as are likely to be affected by the imposition of the requirement or the acceptance of the undertaking, andcany person exercising regulatory functions in relation to the person on whom the discretionary requirement was imposed or from whom the enforcement undertaking was accepted.2In subsection (1) “regulatory functions” has the same meaning as in the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (see section 32 of that Act).<Emphasis>Transitional provision</Emphasis><Repeal ChangeId="M_F_7909b331-d819-4fd7-e302-a7ac3a81cd0e-1662043583361" CommentaryRef="M_F_7909b331-d819-4fd7-e302-a7ac3a81cd0e"

which, see section 116), the price payable for the provision of that service for the purposes of the NHS is (subject to sections 124 and 125) such price as is determined in accordance with the national tariff on the basis of the price (referred to in this Chapter as “the national price”) specified in the national tariff for that service.2If a health care service is not specified in the national tariff, the price payable for the provision of that service for the purposes of the NHS is such price as is determined in accordance with the rules provided for in the national tariff for that purpose.The national tariff1161Monitor must publish a document, to be known as “the national tariff”, which specifies—acertain health care services which are or may be provided for the purposes of the NHS,bthe method used for determining the national prices of those services,cthe national price of each of those services, anddthe method used for deciding whether to approve an agreement under section 124 and for determining an application under section 125 (local modifications of prices).2The national tariff may provide for rules under which the commissioner of a health care service specified in the national tariff and the providers of that service may agree to vary—athe specification of the service under subsection (1)(a), orbthe national price of the service.3Where a variation is agreed in accordance with rules provided for under subsection (2), the commissioner of the service in question must maintain and publish a written statement of—athe variation, andbsuch other variations as have already been agreed in accordance with rules provided for under that subsection in the case of that service.4The national tariff may also—aspecify variations to the national price for a service by reference to circumstances in which the service is provided or other factors relevant to the provision of the service,bprovide for rules for determining the price payable for the provision for the purposes of the NHS of health care services which are not specified under subsection (1)(a), andcprovide for rules relating to the making of payments to the provider of a health care service for the provision of that service.5Rules provided for under subsection (4)(b) may specify health care services which are not specified under subsection (1)(a).6The national tariff may also provide for rules for determining, where a health care service is specified in more than one way under subsection (1)(a) or in more than one way in rules provided for under subsection (4)(b), which specification of the service is to apply in any particular case or cases of any particular description.7The national tariff may include guidance as to—athe application of the method specified under subsection (1)(d),bthe application of rules provided for under subsection (2), (4)(b) or (6),cthe discharge of the duty imposed by subsection (3), ordthe application of variations specified under subsection (4)(a),and a commissioner of a health care service for the purposes of the NHS must have regard to guidance under this subsection.8Different methods may be specified under subsection (1)(b) for different descriptions of health care service.9The national tariff may, in the case of a specified health care service or health care services of a specified description, specify different national prices or different variations under subsection (4)(a) in relation to different descriptions of provider.10A description for the purposes of subsection (9) may not be framed by reference to—awhether the provider is in the public or (as the case may be) private sector, orbsome other aspect of the status of the provider.11The national tariff may not specify a national price for a health care service provided pursuant to the public health functions of the Secretary of State, or of a local authority, under the National Health Service Act 2006.12The national tariff has effect for such period as is specified in the national tariff (or, where a new edition of the national tariff takes effect before the end of that period, until that new edition takes effect).13In exercising its functions under this Chapter, Monitor must (in addition to the matters specified in section 66) have regard to the objectives and requirements for the time being specified in the mandate published under section 13A of the National Health Service Act 2006.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191310"/>The national tariff: further provision1171The ways in which a health care service may be specified in the national tariff under section 116(1)(a), or in rules provided for in the national tariff under section 116(4)(b), include in particular—aspecifying it by reference to its components,bspecifying it as a service (a “bundle”) that comprises two or more health care services which together constitute a form of treatment,cspecifying it as a service in a group of standardised services.2In the case of a service specified in the national tariff under section 116(1)(a), the national tariff must—aif the service is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(a), specify a national price for each component of the service;bif it is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(b), specify a national price for the bundle;cif it is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(c), specify a single price as the national price for each service in the group.3In the case of a service specified in rules provided for in the national tariff under section 116(4)(b), the rules may—aif the service is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(a), make provision for determining the price payable for each component of the service;bif it is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(b), make provision for determining the price payable for the bundle;cif it is specified in accordance with subsection (1)(c), make provision for determining the price payable for each service in the group.4Where the commissioner of a health care service for the purposes of the NHS agrees to pay a price for the provision of the service other than the price that is payable by virtue of this Chapter, Monitor may direct the commissioner to take such steps within such period as Monitor may specify to secure that the position is, so far as practicable, restored to what it would have been if the commissioner had agreed to pay the price payable by virtue of this Chapter.5Where the commissioner of a health care service fails to comply with rules provided for under section 116(2), (4) or (6), Monitor may direct the commissioner to take such steps within such period as Monitor may specify—ato secure that the failure does not continue or recur;bto secure that the position is, so far as practicable, restored to what it would have been if the failure was not occurring or had not occurred.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191311"/>Consultation on proposals for the national tariff1181Before publishing the national tariff, Monitor must send a notice to—aeach clinical commissioning group,beach relevant provider, andcsuch other persons as it considers appropriate.2Monitor must also publish the notice.3The notice must specify—athe health care services which Monitor proposes to specify in the national tariff,bthe method or methods it proposes to use for determining the national prices of those services,cthe prices, determined in each case by using the applicable method specified under paragraph (b), that Monitor proposes as the national prices of those services, anddthe method it proposes to use for deciding whether to approve an agreement under section 124 and for determining an application under section 125 (local modifications of national prices).4The notice may specify such rules as Monitor proposes to provide for in the national tariff under which the commissioner of a health care service and a provider of the service would be entitled to vary—athe specification of the service in the national tariff, orbthe national price of the service.5The notice may also specify—asuch variations (by reference to circumstances in which a service is provided or other factors relevant to its provision) as Monitor proposes to specify to the prices that it proposes as the national prices,bsuch rules as Monitor proposes to provide for in the national tariff for determining the price payable for the provision for the purposes of the NHS of health care services not specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(a), andcsuch rules as Monitor proposes to provide for in the national tariff for determining, where a health care service is specified in more than one way for the purposes of subsection (3)(a) or in more than one way in rules specified for the purposes of paragraph (b), which specification of the service is to apply in any particular case or cases of any particular description.6The notice may include such guidance as Monitor proposes to provide for in the national tariff as to—athe application of the method specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(d);bthe application of rules specified for the purposes of subsection (4) or (5)(b) or (c);cthe application of variations specified for the purposes of subsection (5)(a).7The health care services specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(a) are only such services as the National Health Service Commissioning Board considers should be so specified and—aas the Board and Monitor agree will be so specified, orbin default of agreement, as are determined by arbitration as being services that will be so specified.8A method specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(b) or (d) is only such method, and such guidance on the application of the method specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(d) as is included for the purposes of subsection (6) is only such guidance, as Monitor considers should be so specified and included and—aas Monitor and the Board agree will be so specified and included, orbin default of agreement, as is determined by arbitration as being the method that will be so specified and the guidance that will be so included.9The prices specified for the purposes of subsection (3)(c) are only such prices as Monitor considers should be so specified and—aas Monitor and the Board agree will be so specified, orbin default of agreement, as are determined by arbitration as being the prices that will be so specified.10Such variations as are specified for the purposes of subsection (5)(a), and such guidance on the application of those variations as is included for the purposes of subsection (6), are only such variations and such guidance as Monitor considers should be so specified and included and—aas Monitor and the Board agree will be so specified and included, orbin default of agreement, as are determined by arbitration as being the variations that will be so specified and the guidance that will be so included.11Such rules as are specified for the purposes of subsection (4) or (5)(c), and such guidance on those rules as is included for the purposes of subsection (6), are only such rules and such guidance as the National Health Service Commissioning Board considers should be so specified and included and—aas the Board and Monitor agree will be so specified and included, orbin default of agreement, as are determined by arbitration as being the rules that will be so specified and the guidance that will be so included.12Such rules as are specified for the purposes of subsection (5)(b), and such guidance on those rules as is included for the purposes of subsection (6), are only such rules and such guidance as Monitor considers should be so specified and included and—aas Monitor and the Board agree will be so specified and included, orbin default of agreement, as are determined by arbitration as being the rules that will be so specified and the guidance that will be so included.13A notice under this section must specify when the consultation period in relation to the proposals ends; and for that purpose, the consultation period is the period of 28 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice is published under subsection (2).14In this section, a “relevant provider” is—aa licence holder, orbsuch other person, of such description as may be prescribed, as provides health care services for the purposes of the NHS.Consultation: further provision1191For the purpose of securing that the prices payable for the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS are such as to result in a fair level of pay for providers of the services, the National Health Service Commissioning Board and Monitor must, in exercising functions under section 118, have regard to—adifferences in the costs incurred in providing health care services for the purposes of the NHS to persons of different descriptions, andbdifferences between providers with respect to the range of health care services that they provide for those purposes.2In exercising functions under section 118(7), the Board and Monitor must act with a view to securing the standardisation throughout England of the specification of health care services in the national tariff under section 116(1)(a).3In exercising functions under section 118(12), Monitor and the Board must act with a view to securing the standardisation throughout England of the specification of health care services in rules provided for in the national tariff under section 116(4)(b).4In carrying out the duty under subsection (2) or (3), the Board and Monitor must have regard to whether, or to what extent, standardisation is likely to have a significant adverse impact on the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191312"/>Responses to consultation1201If Monitor receives objections from one or more clinical commissioning groups or relevant providers to a method it proposes under section 118(3)(b), Monitor may not publish the national tariff unless—athe conditions in subsection (2) are met, orbwhere those conditions are not met, Monitor has made a reference to the Competition Commission.2The conditions referred to in subsection (1)(a) are that—athe objection percentage for clinical commissioning groups is less than the prescribed percentage,bthe objection percentage for relevant providers is less than the prescribed percentage, andcthe share of supply percentage is less than such percentage as may be prescribed.3In subsection (2)—athe “objection percentage” is the proportion (expressed as a percentage) of clinical commissioning groups or (as the case may be) relevant providers who objected to the proposed method, andbthe “share of supply percentage” is the proportion (expressed as a percentage) of relevant providers who objected to the proposed method, weighted according to their share of the supply in England of such services as may be prescribed.4A reference under subsection (1)(b) must require the Competition Commission to determine whether the method proposed under section 118(3)(b) is appropriate.5The functions of the Competition Commission with respect to a reference under this section are not to be regarded as general functions of its for the purposes of Part 2 of Schedule 7 to the Competition Act 1998; instead, Schedule 12 to this Act (procedure on a reference under this section) has effect.6Regulations prescribing a percentage for the purposes of subsection (2)(c) may include provision prescribing the method used for determining a relevant provider's share of the supply in England of the services concerned.7In this section and section 121 and Schedule 12, “relevant provider” has the meaning given in section 118(14).<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191313"/>Determination on reference under section 1201211In carrying out a determination on a reference under section 120, the Competition Commission must have regard, to the same extent as is required of Monitor, to the matters to which Monitor must have regard in carrying out the functions of its to which the determination relates.2In carrying out the determination, the Competition Commission must also have regard to such representations as are made to it by clinical commissioning groups or relevant providers who made objections to Monitor in accordance with paragraph 2 of Schedule 12 about the method proposed under section 118(3)(b).3In carrying out the determination, the Competition Commission—amay also have regard to matters to which Monitor was not able to have regard in the case to which the determination relates, butbmust not, in the exercise of the power under paragraph (a), have regard to a matter to which Monitor would not have been entitled to have regard in that case had it had the opportunity to do so.4The Commission may determine that the method proposed under section 118(3)(b) is not appropriate only if it is satisfied that Monitor's decision to propose the method was wrong on one or more of the following grounds—athat Monitor failed to have regard to the matters referred to in subsection (1),bthat the decision was based, wholly or partly, on an error of fact,cthat the decision was wrong in law.5Where the Commission determines that the method proposed under section 118(3)(b) is appropriate, Monitor may use that method for the purposes of the national tariff accordingly.6Where the Commission determines that the method proposed under section 118(3)(b) is not appropriate, it must remit the matter to Monitor for reconsideration and decision in accordance with such directions as the Commission may give.7A direction under subsection (6) may, in particular, require Monitor to make such changes to the method in question as are specified in the direction.8A determination on a reference under section 120—amust be contained in an order made by the Commission,bmust set out the reasons for the determination, andctakes effect at the time specified in the order or determined in accordance with provision made in the order.9The Commission must give notice of a determination on a reference under section 120 to—aMonitor,bthe National Health Service Commissioning Board, andcsuch clinical commissioning groups or relevant providers as made representations in accordance with paragraph 2 of Schedule 12.10The Commission must also publish the determination; but it must exclude from what it publishes information which it is satisfied is—acommercial information the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm the legitimate business interests of an undertaking to which it relates;binformation relating to the private affairs of an individual the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm that person's interests.Changes following determination on reference under section 1201221Where the Competition Commission remits a matter to Monitor under subsection (6) of section 121, Monitor must make such changes to the method to which the matter relates as it considers necessary, having regard to the reasons specified for the purposes of subsection (8)(b) of that section.2Monitor must give the Competition Commission and the National Health Service Commissioning Board a notice specifying—athe changes it proposes to make, andbits reasons for proposing to make them.3Monitor must make the changes specified in the notice unless it is given a direction under section 123 before the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the day after that on which it gave the notice.4If Monitor is given a direction under that section before the end of that period, it must make such of the changes as are not specified in the direction.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191314"/>Power to veto changes proposed under section 1221231The Competition Commission may, within the period of 28 days beginning with the day after that on which it is given a notice under section 122, direct Monitor—anot to make the changes specified in the notice, orbnot to make such of those changes as may be specified in the direction.2Monitor must comply with a direction under this section.3The Secretary of State may, within that period and on the application of the Commission, direct that the period for giving a direction under this section (and, accordingly, the period referred to in section 122(3)) is to be extended by 14 days.4The Competition Commission may give a direction under this section only in respect of such of the changes specified in the notice under section 122 as it considers are not necessary in consequence of its determination on the reference.5If the Commission gives a direction under this section, it—amust give notice specifying the changes proposed by Monitor, the terms of the direction and the reasons for giving it, andbmust itself make such changes to the method to which the reference relates as it considers necessary in consequence of its determination on the reference.6In exercising its function under subsection (5)(b), the Commission must have regard to the matters to which Monitor must have regard when determining the method to which the reference relates.7Before making changes under subsection (5)(b), the Commission must give notice to Monitor and the National Health Service Commissioning Board specifying—athe changes it proposes to make,bits reasons for proposing to make them, andcthe period within which representations on the proposed changes may be made.8The period specified for the purposes of subsection (7)(c) must not be less than 28 days beginning with the day on which the notice is given.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191315"/>Local modifications of prices: agreements1241The commissioner and the provider of a health care service may agree that the price payable to the provider for the provision of the service for the purposes of the NHS in such circumstances or areas as may be determined in accordance with the agreement is the price determined in accordance with the national tariff for that service as modified in accordance with the agreement.2An agreement under this section must specify the date on which the modification is to take effect; and a date specified for that purpose may be earlier than the date of the agreement (but not earlier than the date on which the national tariff took effect).3An agreement under this section has effect only if it is approved by Monitor.4An agreement submitted for approval under subsection (3) must be supported by such evidence as Monitor may require.5Monitor may approve an agreement under this section only if, having applied the method specified under section 116(1)(d), it is satisfied that, without a modification to the price determined in accordance with the national tariff for that service, it would be uneconomic for the provider to provide the service for the purposes of the NHS.6Where an agreement is approved under subsection (3), Monitor must send a notice to the Secretary of State and such clinical commissioning groups, providers and other persons as it considers appropriate.7Monitor must also publish the notice.8The notice must specify—athe modification, andbthe date on which it takes effect.9If the Secretary of State considers that the modification gives or may give rise (or, where it has yet to take effect, would or might give rise) to liability for breach of an EU obligation, the Secretary of State may give a direction to that effect; and the modification is (or is to be) of no effect in so far as it is subject to the direction.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191316"/>Local modifications of prices: applications1251Monitor may, on an application by a provider of a health care service who has failed to reach an agreement under section 124 with the commissioner, decide that the price payable to the provider for the provision of the service for the purposes of the NHS in such circumstances or areas as Monitor may determine is to be the price determined in accordance with the national tariff for that service as modified in such way as Monitor may determine.2An application under this section must be supported by such evidence as Monitor may require.3Monitor may grant an application under this section only if, having applied the method under section 116(1)(d), it is satisfied that, without a modification to the price determined in accordance with the national tariff for that service, it would be uneconomic for the provider to provide the service for the purposes of the NHS.4Subsections (5) to (8) apply where Monitor grants an application under this section.5The decision by Monitor on the application takes effect on such date as Monitor may determine; and a date determined for that purpose may be earlier than the date of the decision (but not earlier than the date on which the national tariff took effect).6Monitor must send a notice of the decision to the Secretary of State and such clinical commissioning groups, providers and other persons as it considers appropriate.7Monitor must also publish the notice.8The notice must specify—athe modification, andbthe date on which it takes effect.9If the Secretary of State considers that the modification gives or may give rise (or, where it has yet to take effect, would or might give rise) to liability for breach of an EU obligation, the Secretary of State may give a direction to that effect; and the modification is (or is to be) of no effect in so far as it is subject to the direction.Applications under section 125: notification of commissioners1261This section applies where Monitor—areceives an application under section 125, andbis satisfied that the continued provision for the purposes of the NHS of health care services to which a condition in the applicant's licence under section 97(1)(i), (j) or (k) applies is being put at significant risk by the configuration of certain health care services provided for those purposes.2In subsection (1), a reference to the provision of services is a reference to their provision by the applicant or any other provider.3Monitor must as soon as reasonably practicable notify the National Health Service Commissioning Board and such clinical commissioning groups as Monitor considers appropriate—aof its receipt of the application, andbof its reasons for being satisfied as mentioned in subsection (1)(b).4Monitor must publish for each financial year a list of the notifications under this section that it has given during that year; and the list must include for each notification a summary of Monitor's reasons for being satisfied as mentioned in subsection (1)(b).5The Board and clinical commissioning groups, having received a notification under this section, must have regard to it in arranging for the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS.Correction of mistakes1271This section applies where the national tariff contains information that does not accord with—awhat Monitor and the National Health Service Commissioning Board agreed on the matter concerned, orbwhere the matter was determined by arbitration, what was determined.2Monitor must send a notice to—aeach clinical commissioning group,beach relevant provider, andcsuch other persons as Monitor considers appropriate.3Monitor must also publish the notice.4The notice must specify—athe information that does not accord with what was agreed or determined,bthe correction required to make the information so accord, andcthe date on which the correction is to take effect.5A date specified for the purposes of subsection (4)(c) may be earlier than the date of the notice.6In this section, “relevant provider” has the meaning given in section 118(14).CHAPTER 5Health special administrationHealth special administration orders1281In this Chapter “health special administration order” means an order which—ais made by the court in relation to a relevant provider, andbdirects that the affairs, business and property of the provider are to be managed by one or more persons appointed by the court.2An application to the court for a health special administration order may be made only by NHS England.3A person appointed as mentioned in subsection (1)(b) is referred to in this Chapter as a “health special administrator”.4A health special administrator of a company—ais an officer of the court, andbin exercising functions in relation to the company, is the company's agent.5A person is not to be the health special administrator of a company unless the person is qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to the company.6A health special administrator of a relevant provider must manage its affairs, business and property, and exercise the health special administrator's functions, so as to—aachieve the objective set out in section 129 as quickly and as efficiently as is reasonably practicable,bin seeking to achieve that objective, ensure that any regulated activity carried on in providing the services provided by the provider is carried on in accordance with any requirements or conditions imposed in respect of that activity by virtue of Chapter 2 of Part 1 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008,cso far as is consistent with the objective set out in section 129, protect the interests of the creditors of the provider as a whole, anddso far as is consistent with that objective and subject to those interests, protect the interests of the members of the provider as a whole.7In relation to a health special administration order applying to a non-GB company, references in this Chapter to the affairs, business and property of the company are references only to its affairs and business so far as carried on in Great Britain and to its property in Great Britain.8In this section—aa reference to a person qualified to act as an insolvency practitioner in relation to a company is to be construed in accordance with Part 13 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (insolvency practitioners and their qualifications);bregulated activity” has the same meaning as in Part 1 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (see section 8 of that Act).9In this Chapter—“business” and “property” each have the same meaning as in the Insolvency Act 1986 (see section 436 of that Act);company” includes a company not registered under the Companies Act 2006;court”, in relation to a company, means the court—having jurisdiction to wind up the company, orthat would have such jurisdiction apart from section 221(2) or 441(2) of the Insolvency Act 1986 (exclusion of winding up jurisdiction in case of companies incorporated in, or having principal place of business in, Northern Ireland);member” is to be read in accordance with section 250 of the Insolvency Act 1986;non-GB company” means a company incorporated outside Great Britain;relevant provider” means a company which is providing services to which a condition included in the company's licence under section 97(1)(i), (j) or (k) applies;wholly-owned subsidiary” has the meaning given by section 1159 of the Companies Act 2006.Objective of a health special administration1291The objective of a health special administration is to secure—athe continued provision of such of the health care services provided for the purposes of the NHS by the company subject to the health special administration order, at such level, as the commissioners of those services determine by applying criteria specified in health special administration regulations (see section 130), andbthat it becomes unnecessary, by one or both of the means set out in subsection (2), for the health special administration order to remain in force for that purpose.2Those means are—athe rescue as a going concern of the company subject to the health special administration order, andbone or more transfers falling within subsection (3).3A transfer falls within this subsection if it is a transfer as a going concern—ato another person, orbas respects different parts of the undertaking of the company subject to the health special administration order, to two or more other persons,of so much of that undertaking as it is appropriate to transfer for the purpose of achieving the objective of the health special administration.4The means by which a transfer falling within subsection (3) may be effected include in particular—aa transfer of the undertaking of the company subject to the health special administration order, or of part of its undertaking, to a wholly-owned subsidiary of that company, andba transfer to a company of securities of a wholly-owned subsidiary to which there has been a transfer falling within paragraph (a).5The objective of a health special administration may be achieved by transfers to the extent only that—athe rescue as a going concern of the company subject to the health special administration order is not reasonably practicable or is not reasonably practicable without such transfers,bthe rescue of the company as a going concern will not achieve that objective or will not do so without such transfers,csuch transfers would produce a result for the company's creditors as a whole that is better than the result that would be produced without them, ordsuch transfers would, without prejudicing the interests of its creditors as a whole, produce a result for the company's members as a whole that is better than the result that would be produced without them.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191317"/>Health special administration regulations1301Regulations (referred to in this Chapter as “health special administration regulations”) must make further provision about health special administration orders.2Health special administration regulations may apply with or without modifications—aany provision of Part 2 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (administration) or any related provision of that Act, andbany other enactment which relates to insolvency or administration or makes provision by reference to anything that is or may be done under that Act.3Health special administration regulations may, in particular, provide that the court may make a health special administration order in relation to a relevant provider if it is satisfied, on a petition by the Secretary of State under section 124A of the Insolvency Act 1986 (petition for winding up on grounds of public interest), that it would be just and equitable (disregarding the objective of the health special administration) to wind up the provider in the public interest.4Health special administration regulations may make provision about—athe application of procedures under the Insolvency Act 1986 in relation to relevant providers, andbthe enforcement of security over property of relevant providers.5Health special administration regulations may, in particular, make provision about the publication and maintenance by Monitor of a list of relevant providers.6Health special administration regulations may in particular—arequire Monitor to publish guidance for commissioners about the application of the criteria referred to in section 129(1)(a);bconfer power on Monitor to revise guidance published by virtue of paragraph (a) and require it to publish guidance so revised;crequire Monitor, before publishing guidance by virtue of paragraph (a) or (b), to obtain the approval of the Secretary of State and the National Health Service Commissioning Board;drequire commissioners, when applying the criteria referred to in section 129(1)(a), to have regard to such matters as Monitor may specify in guidance published by virtue of paragraph (a) or (b);erequire the National Health Service Commissioning Board to make arrangements for facilitating agreement between commissioners in their exercise of their function under section 129(1)(a);fconfer power on the Board, where commissioners fail to reach agreement in pursuance of arrangements made by virtue of paragraph (e), to exercise their function under section 129(1)(a);gprovide that, in consequence of the exercise of the power conferred by virtue of paragraph (f), the function under section 129(1)(a), so far as applying to the commissioners concerned, is to be regarded as discharged;hrequire a health special administrator to carry out in accordance with the regulations consultation on the action which the administrator recommends should be taken in relation to the provider concerned.7Health special administration regulations may modify this Chapter or any enactment mentioned in subsection (8) in relation to any provision made by virtue of this Chapter.8The enactments are—athe Insolvency Act 1986, andbany other enactment which relates to insolvency or administration or makes provision by reference to anything that is or may be done under that Act.9The power to make rules under section 411 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (company insolvency rules) applies for the purpose of giving effect to provision made by virtue of this Chapter as it applies for the purpose of giving effect to Parts 1 to 7 of that Act.10For that purpose—athe power to make rules in relation to England and Wales is exercisable by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the Secretary of State and, in the case of rules that affect court procedure, with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice;bthe power to make rules in relation to Scotland is exercisable by the Secretary of State;creferences in section 411 of that Act to those Parts are to be read as including a reference to this Chapter.11Before making health special administration regulations the Secretary of State must consult—aMonitor, andbsuch other persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191318"/>Transfer schemes1311Health special administration regulations may make provision about transfer schemes to achieve the objective of a health special administration (see section 129).2Health special administration regulations may, in particular, include provision—afor the making of a transfer scheme to be subject to the consent of Monitor and the person to whom the transfer is being made,bfor Monitor to have power to modify a transfer scheme with the consent of parties to the transfers effected by the scheme, andcfor modifications made to a transfer scheme by virtue of paragraph (b) to have effect from such time as Monitor may specify (which may be a time before the modifications were made).3Health special administration regulations may, in particular, provide that a transfer scheme may include provision—afor the transfer of rights and liabilities under or in connection with a contract of employment from a company subject to a health special administration order to another person,bfor the transfer of property, or rights and liabilities other than those mentioned in paragraph (a), from a company subject to a health special administration order to another person,cfor the transfer of property, rights and liabilities which would not otherwise be capable of being transferred or assigned,dfor the transfer of property acquired, and rights and liabilities arising, after the making of the scheme,efor the creation of interests or rights, or the imposition of liabilities, andffor the transfer, or concurrent exercise, of functions under enactments.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191319"/>Indemnities132Health special administration regulations may make provision about the giving by Monitor of indemnities in respect of—aliabilities incurred in connection with the discharge by health special administrators of their functions, andbloss or damage sustained in that connection.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191320"/>Modification of this Chapter under Enterprise Act 20021331The power to modify or apply enactments conferred on the Secretary of State by each of the sections of the Enterprise Act 2002 mentioned in subsection (2) includes power to make such consequential modifications of provision made by virtue of this Chapter as the Secretary of State considers appropriate in connection with any other provision made under that section.2Those sections are—asections 248 and 277 (amendments consequential on that Act), andbsection 254 (power to apply insolvency law to foreign companies).CHAPTER 6Financial assistance in special administration cases<Emphasis>Establishment of mechanisms</Emphasis><CommentaryRef Ref="c2191321"/>Duty to establish mechanisms for providing financial assistance1341Monitor must establish, and secure the effective operation of, one or more mechanisms for providing financial assistance in cases where a provider of health care services for the purposes of the NHS (referred to in this Chapter as a “provider”) is subject to—aa health special administration order (within the meaning of Chapter 5), orban order under section 65D(2) of the National Health Service Act 2006 (trust special administration for NHS foundation trusts).2Mechanisms that Monitor may establish under this section include, in particular—amechanisms for raising money to make grants or loans or to make payments in consequence of indemnities given by Monitor by virtue of section 132 or under section 65D(12) of the National Health Service Act 2006;bmechanisms for securing that providers arrange, or are provided with, insurance facilities.3Monitor may secure that a mechanism established under this section operates so as to enable it to recover the costs it incurs in establishing and operating the mechanism.4Monitor may establish different mechanisms for different providers or providers of different descriptions.5Monitor does not require permission under any provision of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 as respects activities carried out under this Chapter.6An order under section 306 providing for the commencement of this Chapter may require Monitor to comply with the duty to establish under subsection (1) before such date as the order specifies.Power to establish fund1351 NHS England may, for the purposes of section 134, establish and maintain a fund.2In order to raise money for investment in a fund it establishes under this section, NHS England may impose requirements on providers or integrated care boards.3 NHS England must appoint at least two managers for a fund it establishes under this section.4A manager of a fund may be an individual, a firm or a body corporate.5NHS England must not appoint an individual as manager of a fund unless it is satisfied that the individual has the appropriate knowledge and experience for managing investments.6NHS England must not appoint a firm or body corporate as manager of a fund unless it is satisfied that arrangements are in place to secure that any individual who will exercise functions of the firm or body corporate as manager will, at the time of doing so, have the appropriate knowledge and experience for managing investments.7NHS England must not appoint an individual, firm or body corporate as manager of a fund unless the individual, firm or body is an authorised or exempt person within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.8NHS England must secure the prudent management of any fund it establishes under this section.<Emphasis>Applications for financial assistance</Emphasis>Applications1361 NHS England may, on an application by a special administrator, provide financial assistance to the special administrator by using a mechanism established under section 134.2An application under this section must be in such form, and must be supported by such evidence or other information, as NHS England may require (and a requirement under this subsection may be imposed after the receipt, but before the determination, of the application).3If NHS England grants an application under this section, it must notify the applicant of—athe purpose for which the financial assistance is being provided, andbthe other conditions to which its provision is subject.4The special administrator must secure that the financial assistance is used only—afor the purpose notified under subsection (3)(a), andbin accordance with the conditions notified under subsection (3)(b).5Financial assistance under this section may be provided only in the period during which the provider in question is in special administration.6If NHS England refuses an application under this section, it must notify the applicant of the reasons for the refusal.7 NHS England must, on a request by an applicant whose application under this section has been refused, reconsider the application; but no individual involved in the decision to refuse the application may be involved in the decision on the reconsideration of the application.8For the purposes of reconsidering an application, NHS England may request information from the applicant.9NHS England must notify the applicant of its decision on reconsidering the application; and—aif NHS England grants the application, it must notify the applicant of the matters specified in subsection (3), andbif NHS England refuses the application, it must notify the applicant of the reasons for the refusal.10In this Chapter—aspecial administrator” means—ia person appointed as a health special administrator under Chapter 5, oriia person appointed as a trust special administrator under section 65D(2) of the National Health Service Act 2006, andbreferences to being in special administration are to be construed accordingly.Grants and loans1371 NHS England may not provide financial assistance under section 136 in the form of a grant or loan unless it is satisfied that—ait is necessary for the provider—ito be able to continue to provide one or more of the health care services that it provides for the purposes of the NHS, oriito be able to secure a viable business in the long term, andbno other source of funding which would enable it do so and on which it would be reasonable for it to rely is likely to become available to it.2The terms of a grant or loan must include a term that the whole or a specified part of the grant or loan becomes repayable in the event of a breach by the provider or special administrator of the terms of the grant or loan.3Subject to that, where NHS England makes a grant or loan under section 136, it may do so in such manner and on such terms as it may determine.4 NHS England may take such steps as it considers appropriate (including steps to adjust the amount of future payments towards the mechanism established under section 134 to raise funds for grants or loans under section 136) to recover overpayments in the provision of a grant or loan under that section.5The power to recover an overpayment under subsection (4) includes a power to recover interest, at such rate as NHS England may determine, on the amount of the overpayment for the period beginning with the making of the overpayment and ending with its recovery.<Emphasis>Charges on commissioners</Emphasis><CommentaryRef Ref="c2191322"/>Power to impose charges on commissioners1381The Secretary of State may by regulations confer power on Monitor to require commissioners to pay charges relating to such of Monitor's functions that relate to securing the continued provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS.2The regulations must provide that the amount of a charge imposed by virtue of this section is to be such amount—aas may be prescribed, orbas is determined by reference to such criteria, and by using such method, as may be prescribed.3The regulations must—aprescribe to whom the charge is to be paid;bprescribe when the charge becomes payable;cwhere the amount of the charge is to be determined in accordance with subsection (2)(b), require Monitor to carry out consultation in accordance with the regulations before imposing the charge;dprovide for any amount that is not paid by the time prescribed for the purposes of paragraph (b) to carry interest at the rate for the time being specified in section 18 of the Judgments Act 1838;eprovide for any unpaid balance and accrued interest to be recoverable summarily as a civil debt (but for this not to affect any other method of recovery).4Where the person that the regulations prescribe for the purposes of subsection (3)(a) is a provider, the regulations may confer power on Monitor to require the provider to pay Monitor the amount of the charge in question in accordance with the regulations.5Before making regulations under this section, the Secretary of State must consult—aMonitor, andbthe National Health Service Commissioning Board.6Regulations under this section may apply with modifications provision made by sections 141 to 143 in relation to charges imposed by virtue of this section.<Emphasis>Levy on providers</Emphasis>Imposition of levy1391The power under section 135(2) includes, in particular, power to impose a levy on providers for each financial year.2Before deciding whether to impose a levy under this section for the coming financial year, NHS England must estimate—athe amount that will be required for the purpose of providing financial assistance in accordance with this Chapter,bthe amount that will be collected from integrated care boards by way of charges imposed by virtue of section 138 during that year, andcthe amount that will be standing to the credit of the fund at the end of the current financial year.3Before the start of a financial year in which NHS England proposes to impose a levy under this section, it must determine—athe factors by reference to which the rate of the levy is to be assessed,bthe time or times by reference to which those factors are to be assessed, andcthe time or times during the year when the levy, or an instalment of it, becomes payable.4Where the determinations under subsection (3) reflect changes made to the factors by reference to which the rate of the levy is to be assessed, the notice under section 143(1)(b) must include an explanation of those changes.5A levy under this section may be imposed at different rates for different providers.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191323"/>Power of Secretary of State to set limit on levy and charges1401Before the beginning of each financial year, the Secretary of State may, with the approval of the Treasury, specify by order—athe maximum amount that Monitor may raise from levies it imposes under section 139 for that year, andbthe maximum amount that it may raise from charges it imposes by virtue of section 138 for that year.2Where the Secretary of State makes an order under this section, Monitor must secure that the levies and charges for that year are at a level that Monitor estimates will, in each case, raise an amount not exceeding the amount specified for that case in the order.Consultation1411This section applies where NHS England is proposing to impose a levy under section 139 for the coming financial year and—ahas not imposed a levy under that section for the current financial year or any previous year,bhas been imposing the levy for the current financial year but proposes to make relevant changes to it for the coming financial year, orchas been imposing the levy for the current financial year and the financial year preceding it, but has not been required to serve a notice under this section in respect of the levy for either of those years.2A change to a levy is relevant for the purposes of subsection (1)(b) if it is a change to the factors by reference to which the rate of the levy is to be assessed.3Before making the determinations under section 139(3) in respect of the levy, NHS England must send a notice to—athe Secretary of State,b. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .ceach integrated care board,deach potentially liable provider, andesuch other persons as it considers appropriate.4 NHS England must publish a notice that it sends under subsection (3).5In a case within subsection (1)(a) or (c), the notice must state—athe factors by reference to which NHS England proposes to assess the rate of the levy,bthe time or times by reference to which it proposes to assess those factors, andcthe time or times during the coming financial year when it proposes that the levy, or an instalment of it, will become payable.6In a case within subsection (1)(b), the notice must specify the relevant changes NHS England proposes to make.7A notice under this section must specify when the consultation period in relation to the proposals ends; and for that purpose, the consultation period is the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the notice is published under subsection (4).8In this section ... a “potentially liable provider” means a provider on whom NHS England is proposing to impose the levy for the coming financial year (regardless of the amount (if any) that the provider would be liable to pay as a result of the proposal).<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191324"/>Responses to consultation1421If Monitor receives objections from one or more potentially liable providers to its proposals, it may not give notice under section 143(1)(b) unless—athe conditions in subsection (2) are met, orbwhere those conditions are not met, Monitor has made a reference to the Competition Commission.2The conditions referred to in subsection (1)(a) are that—aone or more potentially liable providers object to the proposals within the consultation period, andbthe objection percentage and the share of supply percentage are each less than the prescribed percentage.3In subsection (2)—athe “objection percentage” is the proportion (expressed as a percentage) of the potentially liable providers who objected to the proposals, andbthe “share of supply percentage” is the proportion (expressed as a percentage) of the potentially liable providers who objected to the proposals, weighted according to their share of the supply in England of such services as may be prescribed.4A reference under subsection (1)(b) must be so framed as to require the Competition Commission to investigate and report on the questions—awhether in making the proposals, Monitor failed to give sufficient weight to the matters in section 66,bif so, whether that failure operates, or may be expected to operate, against the public interest, andcif so, whether the effects adverse to the public interest which that failure has or may be expected to have could be remedied or prevented by changes to the proposals.5Schedule 10 (which makes further provision about references to the Competition Commission) has effect in relation to a reference under subsection (1)(b); and for that purpose—aparagraph 1 is to be ignored,bin paragraph 5(2), the reference to six months is to be read as a reference to two months,cin paragraph 5(4), the reference to six months is to be read as a reference to one month,din paragraph 7, sub-paragraphs (4) to (7) and (9) are to be ignored (and, in consequence of that, in sub-paragraph (8), the words from the beginning to “sub-paragraph (4)(c)” are also to be ignored), andethe references to relevant persons are to be construed in accordance with subsection (6).6The relevant persons referred to in Schedule 10 are—ain paragraphs 3, 5(6) and 6(6)—ithe National Health Service Commissioning Board, andiithe potentially liable providers who objected to the proposals, andbin paragraph 8(10)—iMonitor, andiithe potentially liable providers who objected to the proposals.7In investigating the question under subsection (4)(a), the Competition Commission must have regard to the matters in relation to which Monitor has duties under this Chapter.8Regulations prescribing a percentage for the purposes of subsection (2)(b) may include provision prescribing the method used for determining a provider's share of the supply in England of the services concerned.Amount payable1431 NHS England must—acalculate the amount which each provider who is to be subject to a levy under section 139 for a financial year is to be liable to pay in respect of that year, andbnotify the provider of that amount and the date or dates on which it, or instalments of it, will become payable.2If the provider is to be subject to the levy for only part of the financial year, it is to be liable to pay only the amount which bears to the amount payable for the whole financial year the same proportion as the part of the financial year for which the provider is to be subject to the levy bears to the whole financial year.3The amount which a provider is liable to pay may be zero.4Subsection (5) applies if, during a financial year in which NHS England is imposing a levy under section 139, it becomes satisfied that the risk of a provider who is subject to the levy going into special administration has changed by reference to what it was—aat the start of the year, orbif NHS England has already exercised the power under subsection (5) in relation to the levy in the case of that provider, at the time it did so.5 NHS England may notify the provider that NHS England proposes to adjust the amount that the provider is liable to pay so as to reflect the change; and the notice must specify the amount of the proposed adjustment.6Following the expiry of the period of 28 days beginning with the day after that on which NHS England sends the notice, it may make the adjustment.7In a case within subsection (2), subsection (4) has effect as if references to the financial year were references to the part of the financial year for which the provider is to be subject to the levy.8Where a provider who reasonably believes that NHS England has miscalculated the amount notified to the provider under subsection (1) or (5) requests NHS England to recalculate the amount, NHS England must—acomply with the request, andbsend the provider written notice of its recalculation.9Subsection (8) does not apply to a request to recalculate an amount in respect of a financial year preceding the one in which the request is made.10If the whole or part of the amount which a person is liable to pay is not paid by the date by which it is required to be paid, the unpaid balance carries interest at the rate for the time being specified in section 17 of the Judgments Act 1838; and the unpaid balance and accrued interest are recoverable summarily as a civil debt (but this does not affect any other method of recovery).<Emphasis>Supplementary</Emphasis>Investment principles and reviews1441Monitor must prepare and publish a statement of the principles that govern its decisions, or decisions made on its behalf, about making investments for the purposes of this Chapter.2Monitor must—ain each financial year, review the statement,bif it considers necessary in light of the review, revise the statement, andcif it revises the statement, publish the revised statement.3As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each financial year, Monitor must undertake and publish a review of the operation during that year of—athe procedure for health special administration under Chapter 5,bthe procedure for trust special administration for NHS foundation trusts under Chapter 5A of Part 2 of the National Health Service Act 2006, andcsuch mechanisms as have been established under section 134.4The purposes of the review under subsection (3)(c) are—ato assess the operation of the mechanisms concerned,bto assess the accuracy of the estimates given by Monitor in relation to the operation of the mechanisms,cto assess what improvements can be made to the process for making estimates in relation to the operation of the mechanisms, anddto review the extent of the protection which the mechanisms are required to provide.5Where a fund established under section 135 has been in operation for the whole or part of the year concerned, the review published under this section must specify—athe income of the fund during that year, andbthe expenditure from the fund during that year.6Monitor must exclude from a review published under this section information which it is satisfied is—acommercial information the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm the legitimate business interests of an undertaking to which it relates;binformation relating to the private affairs of an individual the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm that person's interests.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191325"/>Borrowing1451Monitor may—aborrow from a deposit-taker such sums as it may from time to time require for exercising its functions under this Chapter;bgive security for sums that it borrows.2But Monitor may not borrow if the effect would be—ato take the aggregate amount outstanding in respect of the principal of sums borrowed by it over such limit as the Secretary of State may by order specify, orbto increase the amount by which the aggregate amount so outstanding exceeds that limit.3In this section, “deposit-taker” means—aa person who has permission under Part 4 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, orban EEA firm of the kind mentioned in paragraph 5(b) of Schedule 3 to that Act which has permission under paragraph 15 of that Schedule (as a result of qualifying for authorisation under paragraph 12 of that Schedule) to accept deposits.4The definition of “deposit-taker” in subsection (3) must be read with—asection 22 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000,bany relevant order under that section, andcSchedule 2 to that Act.<CommentaryRef Ref="c2191326"/>Shortfall or excess of available funds, etc.1461The Secretary of State may provide financial assistance to Monitor if the Secretary of State is satisfied that—athere are insufficient funds available from a mechanism established under section 134, orbthe mechanism is otherwise unable to operate effectively.2If the Secretary of State is satisfied that the level of funds available from a mechanism established under section 134 exceeds the level that is necessary, the Secretary of State may direct Monitor to transfer the excess to the Secretary of State.3If the Secretary of State is satisfied that a mechanism established under section 134 has become dormant, or if a mechanism so established is being wound up, the Secretary of State may direct Monitor to transfer to the Secretary of State such funds as are available from the mechanism.CHAPTER 7Miscellaneous and generalSecretary of State's duty as respects variation in provision of health services147After section 12D of the National Health Service Act 2006 insert—<Emphasis>Miscellaneous</Emphasis>Secretary of State's duty as respects variation in provision of health services12E1The Secretary of State must not
