(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under the Care Standards Act 2000 ("the Act") and apply in relation to holiday schemes for disabled children in England only. Part 2 of the Act provides for the registration and inspection of establishments and agencies by Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Education, Children's Services and Skills. Section 42 of the Act makes provision, through regulations, for the application of the Act (with such modifications as may be specified) in respect of the registration of other services which are not covered on the face of the Act. These include services that are, or are similar to, services which local authorities provide in the exercise of their social services functions (defined in section 121 of the Act). These Regulations prescribe a person who carries on or manages a holiday scheme for disabled children (as defined in regulation 1(3)) for the purposes of section 42, and provide that the regulation making powers in Part 2 of the Act (regulation 2(2)) shall apply to such persons with the modifications set out in the Schedule to the Regulations.
