# The Social Care and Social Work Improvement Scotland (Requirements for Care Services) Amendment Regulations 2013, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Social Care and Social Work Improvement Scotland (Requirements for Care Services) Regulations 2011 (“the 2011 Regulations”).
Regulation 19, read with regulation 6, of the 2011 Regulations created an offence of providing a care service whilst the service was subject to various forms of insolvency procedure. These Regulations remove that offence and place a duty on a provider to notify Social Care and Social Work Improvement Scotland (commonly known as “the Care Inspectorate”) immediately upon an insolvency event (as defined in new regulations 6A, 6B and 6C).
