It further amends regulation 3 to provide that, in such cases, usual residence should be interpreted as the address of the prison except in the case of commissioning psychiatric care for the purposes of removal from a prison to hospital where the normal rules for determining usual residence shall apply.
Regulations 4 to 6 (apart from regulation 4(4)(a)) amend regulations 9 to 11 of the principal Regulations to take account of the abolition of Health Authorities in Wales on 31st March 2003 and the devolution of most of their functions to newly created Local Health Boards.
