Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the National Health Service (General Medical Services) Regulations 1992 (“the principal Regulations”) which regulate the terms on which doctors provide general medical services under the National Health Service Act 1977.
Regulation 2 includes Uprima in Schedule 11 to the principal Regulations, which lists drugs which may only be prescribed in certain circumstances.
As a result of the transfer of certain functions of the Secretary of State in relation to Wales to the National Assembly for Wales, these amendments apply to England only.
