2006 c 41. The powers which are exercised by the Secretary of State in making these Regulations are exercisable only in relation to England, by virtue of section 271(1) of the National Health Service Act 2006. However, paragraph 8 of Schedule 2 to the National Health Service (Consequential Provisions) Act 2006 specifically saves the effect of article 2 of the National Assembly of Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999, so that for a function relating to a cross border Special Health Authority which cannot be exercised specifically for Wales, the Secretary of State or Welsh Ministers can exercise the function concurrently.
