Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make consequential amendments to the National Health Service Central Register (Scotland) Regulations 2006 which prescribe the information that can be shared by the Registrar General for Scotland in operating the National Health Service Central Register (“NHSCR”) for Scotland.
They update the bodies with which information can be shared following the transfer of NHSCR for England and Wales to the Health and Social Care Information Centre and the abolition of the Scottish Drug Enforcement Agency.
A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no cost on business.
