These Regulations amend the Children’s Homes Regulations 1991 in relation to England only, consequent on the commencement of section 40 of the Care Standards Act 2000 (2000 c. 14) also on 1st January 2001. Section 40 amends section 63(3)(a) of the Children Act 1989 so as to require privately operated children’s homes which accommodate and care for less than four children to be registered with the local authority in the same way as larger children’s homes. The effect of these Regulations is, subject to existing restrictions on fostering more than three children, to exempt homes in which children are accommodated as foster children from the requirement to register as a children’s home.
