(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations correct an omission from the Care Quality Commission (Registration) Regulations 2009 (“the original Regulations”) by providing that the offence created by regulation 25 of those Regulations is a fixed penalty offence and setting the monetary amount of the penalty that applies.
Since the omission of this provision was an oversight in the original Regulations, these amending Regulations are being issued free to all known recipients of the original Regulations.
