11.—(1) This paragraph applies where, during the transition period, a CSA provider makes an application under section 15(1)(a) of the 2000 Act to vary or remove a condition of registration for an establishment or agency which is a transition service.
(2) Where paragraph (1) applies, notwithstanding the requirements of section 15(4) (requirement to notify applicant on decision to grant application) and section 17(5) (requirement to notify applicant of decision to refuse an application) of the 2000 Act, the Welsh Ministers are not required to determine the application under section 15(1)(a) of the 2000 Act and may instead consider it as part of the CSA provider’s application under section 6 of the Act.
