EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the National Health Service (Tribunal) (Scotland) Regulations 2004 ("the principal Regulations") which make provision relating to the NHS Tribunal and representation to and procedures before it.
These Regulations-
(a) correct incorrect cross-references in the principal Regulations to provisions of the National Health Service (Primary Medical Services Performers Lists) (Scotland) Regulations 2004, which relate to the time in which certain representations to the NHS Tribunal are to be made (regulation 2(2)); and
(b) amend the principal Regulations so that the Scottish Ministers may, following an adverse decision of the NHS Tribunal, direct Health Boards to recover amounts from practitioners in respect of acts or omissions while that practitioner was included on a primary medical services performers list (regulation 2(3)).
