# The Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) (Amendment) Regulations 2025, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 (“the 2014 Regulations”).
Regulation 3(2) removes the expiry date, to ensure the 2014 Regulations continue to have effect after 31 March 2025. Regulation 3(3) amends the review clause in the 2014 Regulations so the next review and report is due by 13 July 2028 (which is 5 years after the previous review report of the 2014 Regulations was laid before Parliament on 13 July 2023). It also inserts a requirement for there to be 5 yearly reviews following this date.
A full impact assessment has not been produced by this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
