EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under section 198 of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (“the 2014 Act”) and sections 195(6) and 201 of the Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Act 2003.
Regulation 2 provides for the revocation of Wales only secondary legislation (Schedule 1) and the disapplication in relation to Wales of England and Wales secondary legislation (Schedule 2) made under any of the provisions of primary legislation that have been repealed as a consequence of the commencement of the 2014 Act.
Regulation 3 introduces Schedule 3 which sets out the consequential and incidental amendments to secondary legislation required as a consequence of the commencement of the 2014 Act and, in one case, as a consequence of the commencement of the repeal of section 7B of the Local Authority Social Services Act 1970 in Schedule 14 of the Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Act 2003.
Schedule 3 is divided into 3 parts. Part 1 deals with consequential amendments to secondary legislation which refers, for various purposes, to primary legislation that has been repealed in consequence of the commencement of the 2014 Act. Part 2 makes amendments to secondary legislation that refers to any other secondary legislation that is revoked or disapplied by Schedules 1 and 2 to these Regulations. Part 3 makes textual amendments to secondary legislation which is territorially disapplied in relation to Wales, but which continues to apply in relation to England.
Regulation 4 introduces Schedule 4 which makes savings and transitional provision.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations
