(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the National Health Service (General Medical and Pharmaceutical Services) (Scotland) Regulations 1974 ( “the principal regulations”) which regulate the terms upon which doctors provide general medical services under the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978.
The amendments relate to the introduction of statutory maternity pay under the Social Security Act 1986 and take effect from 6th April 1987.
Schedule 1 to the principal regulations contains the terms of service for doctors. These Regulations amend paragraph 10(5) of that Schedule by adding a requirement that, where a certificate is given by a doctor under that provision for the purposes of statutory maternity pay, it must be issued in accordance with regulations made under the Social Security Act 1986.
Schedule 4 to the principal regulations lists the certificates which a doctor must, in accordance with his terms of service, issue free of charge, and the enactments under or for the purpose of which such certificates are required. These Regulations add the Social Security Act 1986 to that list of enactments.
