EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations correct an error in the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (Consequential Amendments) (Secondary Legislation) 2016 (“the 2016 Regulations”).

Regulation 2 amends the 2016 Regulations to omit reference to two sets of regulations from Schedule 2 to the 2016 Regulations (regulations disapplied in relation to Wales).

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
