(This note is not part of the Regulations)
The Carers and Disabled Children Act 2000 inserts into the Children Act 1989 a new section (section 17A) enabling local authorities to make direct payments to persons with parental responsibility for a disabled child or to a disabled child aged 16 or 17, in lieu of services which would have otherwise been provided for them by the local authority under section 17 of the Children Act.
These regulations specify those persons from whom services may not be secured by means of a direct payment (regulation 2).
These regulations also specify the maximum periods of residential accommodation which may be secured by means of a direct payment (regulation 3).
