Section 12 Applications for registration
66.This section sets out the framework for applications for registration, with subsection (1) requiring that the application for registration must be made to the registration authority. Subsection (3) requires that a person applying for registration as a manager of an establishment or agency must be an individual, and not other types of legal ‘person’, such as a limited company or local authority. (See also the notes to sections 22 and 56, which together provide that a manager may be required to register on an appropriate part of the Council’s register of social care workers.)
