This is the original version (as it was originally made). This item of legislation is currently only available in its original format.
11.—(1) Where a provider of relevant primary dental services replaces a dental appliance or orthodontic appliance supplied as part of those services and it is determined in accordance with Schedule 6 that the replacement is necessitated by—
(a)an act or omission on the part of the person supplied; or
(b)if the act or omission occurred when the person supplied was under 16 years of age, an act or omission of the person supplied or of the person having charge of him or her when the act or omission occurred,
the provider of relevant primary dental services may make and recover a charge from the relevant person.
(2) The amount of the charge to be made and recovered under paragraph (1) is, subject to paragraph (3), 30% of the Band 3 charge (rounded down, where necessary, to the nearest whole ten pence) as set out in regulation 4(3).
(3) If the Assembly considers—
(a)that payment of the full amount of the charge under paragraph (1) would involve undue hardship to the relevant person; or
(b)that the replacement, though necessitated by the relevant person’s act or omission, was not wholly necessitated by lack of reasonable care on his or her part,
it may determine that the charge will not be payable, or that its amount will be reduced.
(4) In this regulation, “relevant person” means—
(a)where paragraph (1)(b) applies, the person having charge of the person supplied when the act or omission occurred;
(b)in any other case, the person supplied.
