This Order makes amendments and revocations consequential on Part 2 of the Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Act 2003 (“the Act”). Part 2 of the Act is concerned with the establishment and functions of the Commission for Healthcare Audit and Inspection (“the CHAI”) and the Commission for Social Care Inspection (“the CSCI”). Each of the new bodies has transferred to it some of the functions formerly conferred on the National Care Standards Commission (“NCSC”), which was established under the Care Standards Act 2000, and is abolished under the Act. The CHAI will now also carry out functions formerly carried out by the Commission for Health Improvement (“CHI”) which was established under the Health Act 1999 and which is also abolished under the Act. The Order also makes necessary transitional provisions.
