Regulation 6 Circumstances in which registration may be suspendedI1

A childminder agency may suspend the registration of a provider registered with it for the purposes of Chapter 2, 3 or 4 of Part 3 of the Act in circumstances where the agency reasonably believes that the continued provision of childcare by that provider to any child may expose such a child to a risk of harm.

In this Regulation, “harm” has the same meaning as in section 31(9) of the Children Act 1989^f1.
