(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the General Medical Services and Section 17C Agreements (Transitional and Other Ancillary Provisions) (Scotland) Order 2004 ("the principal Order"), which sets out transitional and ancillary provision arising for the purposes of, or in consequence of, the Primary Medical Services (Scotland) Act 2004.
This Order corrects an error in the provisions of the principal Order relating to a transitory modification of the National Health Service (Vocational Training for General Medical Practice) (Scotland) Regulations 1998 ("the 1998 Regulations"). The provision relates to medical practitioners who on 31st December 1994 provided limited types of general medical services. This Order makes clear that those medical practitioners who provided minor surgery services only, or a combination of limited types of general medical services are exempt from the need to have prescribed experience under the 1998 Regulations.
