(This note is not part of the Order)
Part 2 of the Children and Families (Wales) Measure 2010 enables the Welsh Ministers to specify by Order, exceptions to what constitutes “child minding” and “day care for children”.
This Order is made under section 19(4) and (5) of the Measure. It amends the Child Minding and Day Care Exceptions (Wales) Order 2010 (“the 2010 Order”) to extend the circumstances in which a person whose activity would otherwise fall within the definition of “child minding” or “day care for children” is excepted from it and who is not therefore required to register.
Articles 3 and 4 of this Order make consequential amendments to articles 2 and 8 of the 2010 Order.
Article 5 of this Order excludes youth service provision for young persons who have attained the age of eleven from the requirement to register.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to this Order. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with this Order.
