(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order provides for Part 1 and Chapter 2 of Part 3 of the Care Act 2014 ("the Act") in their application to the Isles of Scilly, to have effect with a specified modification. It also amends the Isles of Scilly (Community Care) Order 1993 ("the 1993 Order").
Part 1 of the Act makes provision about care and support for adults and support for carers.
Chapter 2 of Part 3 of the Act makes provision about the Health Research Authority.
Article 2 of the Order inserts a reference to the Council of the Isles of Scilly in section 1(4) of the Act, which defines "local authority". Accordingly references to "local authority" in Part 1 and Chapter 2 of Part 3 of the Act include the Council of the Isles of Scilly.
Article 3 of the Order amends article 2 of the 1993 Order.
Article 2 of the 1993 Order provides for Part 3 of the National Health Service and Community Care Act 1990 (community care in England and Wales and related functions of local authorities) ("Part 3") to apply to the Isles of Scilly with the modification that in its application to those Isles, any reference to a local authority is to be construed as including a reference to the Council of the Isles of Scilly. Article 3(a) amends the reference to a local authority so that it refers to a local authority in England. Accordingly, it is a reference to a local authority in England (and not a reference to a local authority in Wales) in Part 3 that is to be construed as including a reference to the Council of the Isles of Scilly.
Article 3(b) amends article 2 of the 1993 Order to omit a reference (to the Community Care (Residential Accommodation) Act 1992) which is no longer necessary.
A full Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private sector or civil society organisations is foreseen.
The definition of "local authority" is limited to local authorities in England.
The Council of the Isles of Scilly is constituted under the Isles of Scilly Order 1978 (S.I. 1978/1844).
See section 111(7) of the Act (regulatory practice) as to the reference to a local authority within the meaning of Part 1 of the Act.
