(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order approves, as respects proceedings in England and Wales only, the Rules set out in the Schedule. These amend the Professional Conduct Rules of the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting so as to reduce from three to two the number of Council members necessary to constitute a quorum of each of the Preliminary Proceedings Committee, the Professional Conduct Committee and the Health Committee, and to increase the involvement of non-Council members in the initial consideration of some cases.
