(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the National Health Service Trusts (Membership and Procedure) Regulations 1990 (“the principal Regulations”) which make provision in connection with the membership and procedure of NHS trusts established under Part I of the National Health Service and Community Care Act 1990.

In particular, they amend paragraph 5 of regulation 11 of the principal Regulations so as to allow the chairman or a non-officer member of the National Health Service Information Authority and of the National Institute for Clinical Excellence to be a chairman or non-executive director of an NHS trust.
