Withdrawal by parties to an agreement other than Health Boards
65.—(1) Where the provider comprises more than one party to the agreement, a party to the agreement may withdraw from the agreement by serving notice in writing on the Health Board and the other parties to the agreement at any time.
(2) Where a party serves notice pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), the agreement will, subject to sub-paragraph (3), be varied to the extent that that party is no longer a party to the agreement 6 months after the date on which the notice is served (“the variation date”), save that if the variation date is not the last calendar day of a month, the agreement will instead vary on the last calendar day of the month in which the variation date falls.
(3) Where a party to the agreement is an individual, sub-paragraph (2) will apply to that party, save that the reference to “6 months” will instead be to “3 months”.
(4) This paragraph is without prejudice to the right of the Health Board to terminate an agreement in accordance with paragraph 74.
