Section 9 Refusal of registration.
England and Wales
F1(1)The registration authority may refuse to register an applicant for registration in respect of a residential care home (other than a small home) if they are satisfied—
that he or any other person concerned or intended to be concerned in carrying on the home is not a fit person to be concerned in carrying on a residential care home (other than a small home);
that for reasons connected with their situation, construction, state of repair, accommodation, staffing, or equipment, the premises used or intended to be used for the purposes of the home, or any other premises used or intended to be used in connection with it, are not fit to be so used; or
that the way in which it is intended to carry on the home is such as not to provide services or facilities reasonably required.
The registration authority may refuse to register an applicant for registration in respect of a small home only if they are satisfied that he or any other person concerned or intended to be concerned in carrying on the home is not a fit person to be concerned in carrying on a residential care home.
