  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations.)\nThese Regulations amend the Road Traffic (Health Services Charges) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2001 (“the principal Regulations”) which provide for a scheme for the recovery from insurers and certain other persons of charges in connection with the health services treatment of road traffic casualties.\nAmendments made to the principal Regulations by regulation 2 increase the charges. Where a traffic casualty received health services treatment but was not admitted to hospital in respect of an incident which occurred on or after 1st April 2004 the charge is increased from £452 to £473. The daily charge for health services in-patient treatment in respect of an incident which occurred on or after 1st April 2004 is increased from £556 to £582. The maximum charge for in-patient treatment in respect of an incident which occurred on or after 1st April 2004 is increased from £33,000 to £34,800.\nRegulation 3 is a saving provision which maintains the current charges for incidents occurring before 1st April 2004.",
