(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke regulation 3 of the Regulation of Care (Excepted Services) (Scotland) Regulations 2002 (S.S.I. 2002/120), which came into force on 1st April 2002. The effect of this is that the school care accommodation services referred to in that regulation now fall within the definition of “school care accommodation service” in section 2(4) of the Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act 2001 (asp 8) (“the Act”). Section 2(4) of the Act was brought into force on 1st April 2002 by article 2(a) of the Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act 2001 (Commencement No. 2 and Transitional Provisions) Order 2002 (S.S.I. 2002/162).
