The provisions of Part VIII of the 1989 Act about the registration of certain children’s homes were repealed by section 117(2) of, and Schedule 6 to, the 2000 Act, subject to the transitional provisions in article 3 of the No. 8 Commencement Order.

Article 3(9) applies to certain children’s homes that at 1st April 2002 were not registered under Part VIII of the 1989 Act, but in respect of which, by virtue of article 3(1) of the Care Standards Act 2000 (Commencement No. 2 and Transitional Provisions) (Wales) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/139), the person carrying on the home was protected from committing the offence under section 63(10) of the 1989 Act of carrying on an unregistered children’s home.
