## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Residential Accommodation (Relevant Premises, Ordinary Residence and Exemptions) Regulations 1993 (S.I. 1993/477) (“the 1993 Regulations”).
The 1993 Regulations enable local authorities to make residential accommodation arrangements for certain categories of people who were in or temporarily absent from independent sector residential care and nursing homes on 31st March 1993. These categories include people under pensionable age and, in certain circumstances, people over pensionable age. Both categories of people are subject to the restriction that if they are evicted from a residential care home or nursing home, served with a notice to quit or temporarily absent from a home to which they will not be allowed to return, no accommodation may be provided for them in that home, or any other premises owned or managed by the person who owned or managed that home, unless it is ceasing to operate as a home.
These Regulations amend the 1993 Regulations by removing this restriction.
