These Regulations amend the Social Care Wales (Specification of Social Care Workers) (Registration) Regulations 2016.
Section 80(1)(b) of the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Act 2016 requires Social Care Wales to keep a register of social care workers of such description as may be specified by the Welsh Ministers in regulations.
These Regulations specify an additional description of social care workers in respect of which Social Care Wales must keep a register, namely those who are employed (whether as an employee or a worker) or engaged under a contract for services to provide care and support to any person in Wales in connection with a special school residential service.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
