EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under the Community Care and Health (Scotland) Act 2002 which, together with the Community Care (Personal Care and Nursing Care) (Scotland) Regulations 2002 ("the principal Regulations"), provide that local authorities are not to charge for certain types of social care provided or secured by them.
Regulation 2 revokes regulation 3 of the principal Regulations. This removes the qualification that the requirement not to charge applies only in relation to persons aged 65 or over.
A Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared and can be obtained from the Scottish Government Health and Social Care Directorate, St Andrews House, Edinburgh EH1 3DG.
Section 23(3)(a) has been modified by paragraph 5 of schedule 3 of the Interpretation and Legislative Reform (Scotland) Act 2010 (asp 10).
Regulation 3 was amended by S.S.I. 2005/445.
