NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE, ENGLAND AND WALES

These Regulations amend the directions given in regulations to regional health authorities in England, to District Health Authorities in Wales, and to the special health authorities established for certain London post-graduate teaching hospitals (“the authorities”) relating to the exercise on behalf of the Secretary of State of his functions concerning health service accommodation and services available for private patients. The effect of the amendments is to extend to the authorities the function of determining the charges to be paid in respect of such accommodation and services.
