(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Care Quality Commission (Additional Functions) Regulations 2011 ("the 2011 Regulations"), which give the Care Quality Commission a duty upon application to review a decision made pursuant to the High Security Psychiatric Services (Arrangements for Safety and Security and Security) Directions 2013 ("the 2013 Directions") to:
withhold an item delivered or brought to a high security hospital for a patient;
withhold internal post sent by a patient in a high security hospital to another patient in the same hospital or a member of staff in that hospital; or
monitor and record a telephone conversation made by a patient in such a hospital.
The 2013 Directions have been revoked and replaced by the High Security Psychiatric Services (Arrangements for Safety and Security) Directions 2019 ("the 2019 Directions"). These Regulations amend the 2011 Regulations to take this change into account. Regulation 2 makes amendments to refer to the 2019 Directions in place of the 2013 Directions.
