Commentary on Sections and Schedules

Part 3 – Regulation of Provision of Childcare in England

Chapter 5 – Common Provisions
Section 90:  Cases where consent to disclosure withheld

173.For the purpose of making decisions about registration, it may be necessary for the Chief Inspector to obtain information from third parties which relates to an applicant for registration or a registered person (or to other persons who may be caring for the children concerned). Section 90 enables the Secretary of State to make regulations allowing the Chief Inspector to refuse or to cancel registration if consent to the disclosure of information by third parties is withheld or consent is withdrawn. This section replaces (for England) the provision made by section 79B(5A) of the Children Act 1989.
