Status

The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section. A version of a provision is prospective either:

  1. where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
  2. where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.

Commencement Orders listed in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ box as not yet applied may bring this prospective version into force.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Personal Injuries (NHS Charges) (Amounts) (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (“the principal Regulations”) which make provision about the charges payable under the scheme for the recovery of NHS charges in cases where an injured person who receives a compensation payment in respect of injury has received National Health Service treatment or ambulance services (“NHS charges”).

Amendments made to the principal Regulations by regulation 2 increase the charges in respect of injuries which occur on or after 1st April 2011. Where the injured person is provided with NHS ambulance services, the charge is increased from £177 to £181 for each occasion. Where the injured person receives NHS treatment, but is not admitted to hospital, the charge is increased from £585 to £600. The daily charge for NHS in-patient treatment is increased from £719 to £737. The maximum charge in respect of an injury is increased from £42,999 to £44,056.

(1)

2003 c.43 (“the 2003 Act”). By virtue of section 167(1) of the 2003 Act any power to make regulations in relation to the recovery of NHS charges is exercisable in relation to Scotland by the Scottish Ministers. Section 168 of the 2003 Act is cited for the definition of “prescribed”.

(2)

S.S.I. 2006/588; which was amended by S.S.I. 2008/96, 2009/193 and 2010/42.
