(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014 ("the 2014 Act") for the purposes of, and in order to give full effect to, the provisions of that Act.
Article 2 sets out the modifications to the 2014 Act. Paragraphs (2) to (6) make modifications which are necessary in order to give full effect to section 1(4)(d) of the 2014 Act. Paragraphs (4) to (6) make supplementary provision which was omitted (in respect of section 1(4)(d)) from the 2014 Act as enacted and which is necessary for the integration model set out in section 1(4)(d) to take full effect. Paragraphs (2) and (3) make repeals which are necessary in consequence of the supplementary modifications and to ensure that sections 23 and 24 give full effect to section 1(4)(d).
Paragraph (7) of article 2 makes a modification to section 62(2)(g) for the purposes of section 66(b) and (d) of the 2014 Act. The effect of this modification is that section 62(2) will apply to bodies created under the new powers inserted into the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 by section 66(b) and (d) of the 2014 Act in the same way as it applies to bodies created under the pre-existing powers in section 84B(1) of the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978.
