The Regulations also make some adjustments to the accounting requirements for arrangements under sections 13 to 15 of the Community Care and Health (Scotland) Act 2002 ("the 2002 Act").
Regulation 2 makes the following amendments to the 2002 Regulations:
(a)paragraphs (b) and (c) remove the necessity for a body to set up a system of monitoring and to provide audited accounts for payments under sections 13 or 14 of the 2002 Act;
(b)paragraph (f) sets out the requirements where a payment is being made by virtue of an arrangement under section 15(1)(b) of the 2002 Act where a pooled fund is not being established under section 15(1)(c) of that Act;

(e)paragraphs (i) and (j) amend the titles to Schedules 2 and 3 to the 2002 Regulations to account for the insertion of the new Schedules. Schedules 2 and 3 of the 2002 Regulations previously prescribed functions for section 15(2) of the 2002 Act but those functions are now prescribed in the new Schedules inserted by these Regulations;
(f)paragraph (k) inserts the new Schedules 5 and 6 into the 2002 Regulations (which are now cross-referred to in regulations 4 and 5 of the 2002 Regulations by virtue of paragraphs (c) and (d)).

Paragraph 1 of that Schedule sets out functions which may be used for both of those purposes and paragraph 2 sets out those which may only be used for the latter.
