EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations make provision concerning the membership and functions of the Appointments Commission, which is established under section 57 of the Health Act 2006.

The Regulations prescribe the number of members of the Commission (regulation 2) and of persons to be appointed to the Health and Social Care Appointments Committee of the Commission (regulation 3). They provide for the period of office of the chairman and non-executive members of the Commission and of persons appointed to the Health and Social Care Appointments Committee (regulation 4), for disqualification for appointment (regulations 5 and 6), termination of office (regulation 7) and suspension from office (regulation 8), and for the Secretary of State to determine their remuneration and allowances (regulation 9). The Regulations confer functions on the Commission (in addition to functions that may otherwise be conferred by or under the Act) in relation to appointments to certain bodies and matters relating to such appointments (regulation 10). They also make provision for payments by the Secretary of State to the Commission (in addition to provision made for such payments under the Act) (regulation 11).

The Regulations revoke certain regulations relating to the NHS Appointments Commission, which is abolished by section 57(4) of the Health Act 2006 (regulation 12).
