Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which extends to Scotland only, approves the Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors (Professional Conduct) (Amendment) Rules 2001 (“the 2001 Rules”), which are set out in the Schedule.
The 2001 Rules amend Rules 29 and 30 of the Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors (Professional Conduct) Rules 1993 (as set out in the Schedule to S.I. 1993/893).
Rule 29 is amended to allow the Health Committee of the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting to be made up of members who are members of the Council and non Council members. Consequent changes are made to provide that no person who is not a member of the Council shall be appointed chairman of the Health Committee in the absence of the chairman or any of the deputies, and to provide that the Health Committee, Preliminary Proceedings Committee, and Professional Conduct Committee are quorate if at least 2 members of the Council constitute a majority.
Rule 30 is amended to remove the restriction upon the Council which prevented it from choosing professional screeners who are not its members.
