EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make provision with regard to the conditions of appointment and terms of office of the chair and non-executive members of the Council for Healthcare Regulatory Excellence (“the Council”).
Conditions of appointment are set out in regulation 2. Certain categories of people, for example people who have been convicted of certain types of offences, are disqualified from being non-executive members or the chair of the Council. The appointment is generally for 4 years (regulation 3) and may be renewed subject to a maximum of 8 years in total. Time served on the Council’s predecessor body (the Council for the Regulation of Health Care Professionals) counts towards this 8-year period.
There are provisions relating to the deputising arrangements for the chair, and the Council will have powers to appoint a deputy chair to serve during the absence of a chair (regulation 4).
Once the chair and members have been appointed, there are certain circumstances in which they may be suspended or removed from office (regulations 5 and 6).
Regulation 7 permits the setting up of committees and sub-committees, which may be comprised partly or wholly of people who are not members of the Council. Regulation 8 contains transitional arrangements for the appointment of non-executive members.
An impact assessment has been prepared in relation to these Regulations and is available from the Department of Health, Quarry House, Quarry Hill, Leeds LS2 7UE.
