| Annotation | There have been many primary and secondary legislative additions in the area of care standards since the first edition in 2002. This new edition brings together the texts (without annotation) of the Care Standards Act 2000, and related statutes and statutory instruments (SIs) with regard to the new regulatory system (and appeal processes) for England and Wales set up under the Act. However, for reasons of space, the section on case law which appeared in the first edition has been omitted. The introduction notes that the Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Act 2003 received the Royal Assent on 21 November 2003 (coming into force on 1 April 2004). This Act abolishes the National Care Standards Commission (NCSC), and creates two new bodies with regulatory powers: the Commission for Health Care Audit (CHAI) and the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI). The introduction also notes that the Care Standards Tribunal incorporates the former Registered Homes Tribunal, decisions for which are placed on the website, www.carestandardstribunal.gov.uk (RH). |
