Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the National Health Service (Service Committees and Tribunal) (Scotland) Regulations 1992 (S.I.1992/434) (“the principal Regulations”). These Regulations amend the principal Regulations to include reference, where appropriate, to primary care NHS Trusts to which responsibility for certain functions relating to the provision of services mentioned in Part II of the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 (c. 29) are delegated by the Health Boards. They insert a new definition of “primary care NHS Trust” (regulation 2).
They also amend the principal Regulations to introduce a provision whereby excessive sight testing or excessive issuing of vouchers may be investigated (regulation 20). The Regulations revoke the transitional provisions in regulation 12(2) of the National Health Service (Service Committees and Tribunal) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1995 (S.I.1995/3201) (regulation 21). The Regulations also make minor drafting amendments to the principal Regulations.
