The NHS Liabilities to Third Parties Scheme covers liabilities to third parties and is funded by member contributions. It was established by the National Health Service (Liabilities to Third Parties Scheme) Regulations 1999 (“the 1999 Regulations”).
This instrument consolidates the 1999 Regulations and the instruments which amended them, in respect of their application to England.
Regulation 20 revokes the 1999 Regulations and the instruments which amended them but saves the 1999 Regulations where the claim in respect of liability is made before the coming into force of these Regulations.
Regulation 21 provides that these Regulations rather than the 1999 Regulations apply in relation to certain circumstances despite those circumstances arising before the coming into force of these Regulations.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
