Children and Families Act 2014

Section 57: Resolution of disagreements

273.Local authorities must make arrangements for avoiding or resolving disagreements where the parents of a child with special educational needs, or a young person with such needs, do not agree with how the local authority or an education body (listed in subsection (9)) with duties under Part 3 of the Act has carried out those duties. It must also make arrangements to avoid or resolve disagreements between the parents of a child or a young person and any school or post-16 institution specifically about the special educational provision made by the institution for that child or young person. The disagreements in this section also cover disagreements between parents or young people on the one hand and the responsible health commissioning bodies on the other about health care provision at the time assessments or re-assessments are being undertaken or EHC plans are being drawn up or reviewed. Disagreement resolution can also cover disagreements between local authorities and their responsible health commissioning bodies.

274.The section does not require either parents or young people on the one hand, or education bodies, local authorities or health commissioning bodies on the other, to participate in resolving disagreements – use of these arrangements is entirely voluntary.

275.Local authorities must appoint someone who is independent to help resolve a disagreement, or prevent it happening in the first place. Employees of a local authority, clinical commissioning group or the NHS Commissioning Board do not meet the criterion of being independent and cannot take on that role.

276.Local authorities must tell various people, including parents and young people, about the arrangements they have put in place to resolve disagreements.

277.This section replaces, in England, section 332B of the Education Act 1996.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
