Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the National Health Service (Scotland) (Injury Benefits) Regulations 1998 (“the principal Regulations”), which provide for the payment, by the Secretary of State, of injury benefits to or in respect of any person engaged in the National Health Service in Scotland whose earning ability is reduced or who dies as a result of an injury suffered or a disease contracted in the course of his or her duties. They have retrospective effect from 1st October 1998, as authorised by section 12(1) of the Superannuation Act 1972.
Regulation 3 amends the interpretation provisions in regulation 2 of the principal Regulations to add further definitions concerned with the introduction of piloted dental services under the National Health Service (Primary Care) Act 1997.
Regulation 4 amends regulation 3 of the principal Regulations so as to apply them to persons involved in the operation of dental pilot schemes, principally the providers of piloted services (with some exceptions) and registered dentists, dental therapists and certain dental hygienists, who are all pilot scheme employees.
These Regulations do not impose any costs on business.
