  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations revoke both the Special Educational Needs and Disability (First-tier Tribunal Recommendation Power) (Pilot) Regulations 2015 (“the 2015 Pilot Regulations”) and the Special Educational Needs and Disability (First-tier Tribunal Recommendation Power) (Pilot) (Amendment) Regulations 2016 (“the 2016 Pilot Amendment Regulations”).\nThe 2015 Pilot Regulations made provision for a pilot scheme to operate in specified local authorities listed in those regulations (“the Pilot Scheme”). The Pilot Scheme started on 1st April 2015.\nUnder the Pilot Scheme when the First-tier Tribunal (Special Educational Needs and Disability) is determining an appeal brought under section 51(2)(b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of the Children and Families Act 2014 (“the Act”) and the respondent local authority is participating in the pilot, the Tribunal may make recommendations in respect of certain health and social care matters within an Education, Health and Care plan (against which no appeal may be brought under the Act).\nThe 2016 Pilot Amendment Regulations added four additional local authorities to the list of local authorities participating in the Pilot Scheme.\nThese Regulations bring the Pilot Scheme to an end on 31st August 2016. Any relevant appeals made before the 31st August will continue until completed.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.",
