Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order.)
This order makes amendments to those orders under Article 10(1) of the Health and Personal Social Services (Northern Ireland) Order 1991 establishing certain Health and Social Services trusts, in order to take account of the introduction of most of the provisions of the Children (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 (“the 1995 Order”).
The amendments specify the operational areas within which the relevant trusts may exercise the statutory functions conferred on a Health and Social Services Board under the 1995 Order and which are delegated to those trusts.
