102Modification of conditions by order under other enactmentsE+W
(1)This section applies where the [F1CMA] or Secretary of State (the “relevant authority”) makes a relevant order.
(2)A relevant order may modify—
(a)the conditions of a particular licence, or
(b)the standard conditions applicable to all licences under this Chapter or to licences of a particular description.
(3)The modifications which may be made by a relevant order are those which the relevant authority considers necessary or expedient for the purpose of giving effect to, or taking account of, any provision made by the order.
(4)In this section “relevant order” means—
(a)an order under section 75, 83 or 84 of, or paragraph 5, 10 or 11 of Schedule 7 to, the Enterprise Act 2002 where one or more of the enterprises which have, or may have, ceased to be distinct enterprises were engaged in the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS;
(b)an order under any of those provisions of that Act where one or more of the enterprises which will or may cease to be distinct enterprises is engaged in the provision of health care services for the purposes of the NHS;
(c)an order under section 160 or 161 of that Act where the feature, or combination of features, of the market [F2or markets] in the United Kingdom for goods or services which prevents, restricts or distorts competition relates to—
(i)the commissioning by [F3NHS England] or [F4an integrated care board] of health care services for the purposes of the NHS, or
(ii)the provision of those services.
(5)The modification under subsection (2)(a) of part of a standard condition of a licence does not prevent any other part of the condition from continuing to be regarded as a standard condition for the purposes of this Chapter.
(6)Where the relevant authority modifies the standard conditions applicable to all licences or (as the case may be) to licences of a particular description under this section, the relevant authority—
(a)may, after consultation with [F5NHS England], make such incidental or consequential modifications as the relevant authority considers necessary or expedient of any other conditions of any licence which is affected by the modifications,
(b)must also make (as nearly as may be) the same modifications of those conditions for the purposes of their inclusion in all licences or (as the case may be) licences of that description granted after that time, and
(c)must publish any modifications it makes under paragraph (b).
(7)Expressions used in subsection (4) and in Part 3 or (as the case may be) Part 4 of the Enterprise Act 2002 have the same meaning in that subsection as in that Part.
(8)In this section, a reference to modifying a condition includes a reference to amending, omitting or adding a condition.
