For section 1I of the National Health Service Act 2006 and the italic heading before it substitute— An integrated care board established under Chapter A3 of Part 2 has the function of arranging for the provision of services for the purposes of the health service in England in accordance with this Act. In Part 2, after Chapter A2 insert— NHS England must establish bodies called integrated care boards in accordance with this Chapter. Each integrated care board is to be established by order made by NHS England for an area within England. The area for which an integrated care board is established must not coincide or overlap with the area of any other integrated care board. NHS England must ensure that, at all times on and after the appointed day, the areas of integrated care boards together cover the whole of England. An order establishing an integrated care board must provide for the constitution of the board, either by setting out the constitution or by making provision by reference to a published document where it is set out. In Schedule 1B— Part 1 is about the constitution of an integrated care board (including its area); Part 2 is about the status and powers of an integrated care board and its accounts. Before varying or revoking an order under this section NHS England must consult any integrated care board that it considers likely to be affected. NHS England must publish orders under this section. In this section “the appointed day” means a day appointed under this subsection by regulations made by the Secretary of State. NHS England must publish a list of the initial areas for which integrated care boards are to be established (each of which is referred to in this section as an “initial area”). The relevant clinical commissioning group or groups for an initial area must propose the constitution of the first integrated care board to be established for that area. Before making a proposal under subsection (2), the relevant clinical commissioning group or groups must consult any persons they consider it appropriate to consult (and it is immaterial for this purpose whether the consultation is carried out before or after this section comes into force). When establishing the first integrated care board under section 14Z25 for an initial area, NHS England must give effect to any proposal under subsection (2) unless it considers that— the proposal is inappropriate, or the relevant clinical commissioning group or groups have not carried out an appropriate consultation under subsection (3), and in that case NHS England must determine the terms of the constitution itself. Nothing in this section— prevents NHS England from establishing the first integrated care board for an initial area in a case where the relevant clinical commissioning group or groups have failed within a reasonable period to make a proposal under subsection (2), or limits the re-exercise of the power in section 14Z25. NHS England may publish guidance for clinical commissioning groups about the exercise of their functions under this section. A clinical commissioning group must have regard to guidance published under this section. In this section “the relevant clinical commissioning group or groups” means— in relation to an area that coincides with the area of a clinical commissioning group, that group; in relation to an area that includes the whole or part of the area of more than one clinical commissioning group, those groups acting jointly. Any clinical commissioning group in existence immediately before the appointed day is abolished at the beginning of that day. In this section “the appointed day” has the same meaning as in section 14Z25. NHS England may, in connection with the abolition of a clinical commissioning group under section 14Z27, make a scheme for the transfer of the group’s property, rights or liabilities to NHS England or an integrated care board. NHS England may, in connection with the establishment of an integrated care board, make a scheme for the transfer of property, rights or liabilities to the board from— an NHS foundation trust, or a Special Health Authority established under section 28. NHS England may, in connection with the variation of the constitution of an integrated care board or the abolition of an integrated care board, make a scheme for the transfer of the board’s property, rights or liabilities to NHS England or an integrated care board. The reference in subsection (3) to the variation of the constitution of an integrated care board is to its variation by order under section 14Z25 or under provision included in its constitution by virtue of paragraph 14 of Schedule 1B. NHS England must exercise its powers under subsection (1) or (3) so as to ensure that— on the abolition of a clinical commissioning group whose area coincides with that of an integrated care board, all of the group’s property, rights and liabilities (other than criminal liabilities) are transferred to that board; on the abolition of a clinical commissioning group whose area does not coincide with that of an integrated care board, all of the group’s property, rights and liabilities (other than criminal liabilities) are transferred to one or more integrated care boards; on the abolition of an integrated care board, all of the board’s liabilities (other than criminal liabilities) are transferred. The things that may be transferred under a transfer scheme include— property, rights and liabilities that could not otherwise be transferred; property acquired, and rights and liabilities arising, after the making of the scheme; criminal liabilities. A transfer scheme may— create rights, or impose liabilities, in relation to property or rights transferred; make provision about the continuing effect of things done by, on behalf of or in relation to the transferor in respect of anything transferred; make provision about the continuation of things (including legal proceedings) in the process of being done by, on behalf of or in relation to the transferor in respect of anything transferred; make provision for references to the transferor in an instrument or other document in respect of anything transferred to be treated as references to the transferee; make provision for the shared ownership or use of property; make provision which is the same as or similar to the TUPE regulations; make other consequential, supplementary, incidental or transitional provision. A transfer scheme may provide— for modifications by agreement; for modifications to have effect from the date when the original scheme came into effect. In subsection (7)(f), “the TUPE regulations” means the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/246). In this section— references to rights and liabilities include rights and liabilities relating to a contract of employment; references to the transfer of property include the grant of a lease. Each integrated care board must publish its constitution (as varied from time to time by order under section 14Z25 or under provision included in its constitution by virtue of paragraph 15 of Schedule 1B). Each integrated care board must maintain one or more registers of the interests of— members of the board, members of its committees or sub-committees, and its employees. Each integrated care board must publish the registers maintained under subsection (1) or make arrangements to ensure that members of the public have access to the registers on request. Each integrated care board must make arrangements to ensure— that a person mentioned in subsection (1) declares any conflict or potential conflict of interest that the person has in relation to a decision to be made in the exercise of the commissioning functions of the integrated care board, that any such declaration is made as soon as practicable after the person becomes aware of the conflict or potential conflict and, in any event, within 28 days of the person becoming aware, and that any such declaration is included in the registers maintained under subsection (1). Each integrated care board must make arrangements for managing conflicts and potential conflicts of interest in such a way as to ensure that they do not, and do not appear to, affect the integrity of the board’s decision-making processes. For the purposes of this section, the commissioning functions of an integrated care board are the functions of the board in arranging for the provision of services as part of the health service. In section 272 (orders, regulations, rules and directions), in subsection (1), before paragraph (a) insert— section 14Z25(2), Schedule 2 inserts into the National Health Service Act 2006 a new Schedule 1B (integrated care boards: constitution etc) and contains a consequential amendment. After section 14Z30 (inserted by section 19 of this Act) insert— NHS England must from time to time publish rules for determining the group of people for whom each integrated care board has core responsibility. The rules must ensure that the following are allocated to at least one group— everyone who is provided with NHS primary medical services, and everyone who is usually resident in England and is not provided with NHS primary medical services. Regulations may create exceptions to subsection (2) in relation to people of a prescribed description (which may include a description framed by reference to the primary medical services with which the people are provided). References in this Act to the group of people for whom an integrated care board has core responsibility are to be read in accordance with this section. In this section, “NHS primary medical services” means services provided by a person, other than NHS England or an integrated care board, in pursuance of— a general medical services contract to provide primary medical services of a prescribed description, arrangements under section 83(2) for the provision of primary medical services of a prescribed description, or section 92 arrangements for the provision of primary medical services of a prescribed description. In section 272 (orders, regulations, rules and directions)— in subsection (1), after paragraph (za) (inserted by section 19 of this Act) insert— section 14Z31(1), in subsection (6), after paragraph (zb) insert— regulations under section 14Z31(3), The Secretary of State may by regulations— substitute the following section for section 14Z31 of the National Health Service Act 2006 (as inserted by subsection (2) of this section)— References in this Act to the group of people for whom an integrated care board has core responsibility are to the people who usually reside in its area. Regulations may create exceptions to subsection (1) in relation to people of a prescribed description. repeal section 272(1)(zb) of that Act (as inserted by subsection (3) of this section), and amend section 272(6)(zba) of that Act (as inserted by subsection (3) of this section), so as to substitute “14Z31(2)” for “14Z31(3)”. For sections 3 and 3A of the National Health Service Act 2006 substitute— An integrated care board must arrange for the provision of the following to such extent as it considers necessary to meet the reasonable requirements of the people for whom it has responsibility— hospital accommodation, other accommodation for the purpose of any service provided under this Act, medical services other than primary medical services (for primary medical services, see Part 4), dental services other than primary dental services (for primary dental services, see Part 5), ophthalmic services other than primary ophthalmic services (for primary ophthalmic services, see Part 6), nursing and ambulance services, such other services or facilities for the care of pregnant women, women who are breastfeeding and young children as the board considers are appropriate as part of the health service, such other services or facilities for palliative care as the board considers are appropriate as part of the health service, such other services or facilities for the prevention of illness, the care of persons suffering from illness and the after-care of persons who have suffered from illness as the board considers are appropriate as part of the health service, and such other services or facilities as are required for the diagnosis and treatment of illness. For the purposes of this section an integrated care board has responsibility for— the group of people for whom it has core responsibility (see section 14Z31), and such other people as may be prescribed (whether generally or in relation to a prescribed service or facility). The duty imposed on an integrated care board by subsection (1) to arrange for the provision of services or facilities does not apply to the extent that— NHS England has a duty to arrange for their provision; another integrated care board has a duty to arrange for their provision by virtue of subsection (2)(b). In exercising its functions under this section, an integrated care board must act consistently with— the discharge by the Secretary of State and NHS England of their duty under section 1(1) (duty to promote a comprehensive health service), and the objectives and requirements for the time being specified in the mandate published under section 13A. Each integrated care board may arrange for the provision of such services or facilities as it considers appropriate for the purposes of the health service that relate to securing improvement— in the physical and mental health of the people for whom it has responsibility, or in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of illness in those people. An integrated care board may not arrange for the provision of a service or facility under subsection (1) if NHS England has a duty to arrange for its provision by virtue of section 3B or 4. Schedule 3 confers functions on integrated care boards in relation to primary care services and contains other amendments relating to primary care services. NHS England may, in connection with the amendments made by Schedule 3, make one or more schemes for the transfer of its property, rights and liabilities to an integrated care board. In subsection (3)(f), “the TUPE regulations” means the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/246). For the purposes of this section— In section 12ZA of the National Health Service Act 2006 (commissioning arrangements by NHS England and integrated care boards), after subsection (2) insert— The arrangements may confer discretions on a person with whom they are made in relation to anything to be provided under the arrangements. After section 14Z31 (inserted by section 20 of this Act) insert— Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions— act with a view to securing that health services are provided in a way which promotes the NHS Constitution, and promote awareness of the NHS Constitution among patients, staff and members of the public. In this section, “patients” and “staff” have the same meaning as in Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Health Act 2009 (see section 3(7) of that Act). Each integrated care board must exercise its functions effectively, efficiently and economically. Each integrated care board must exercise its functions with a view to securing continuous improvement in the quality of services provided to individuals for or in connection with the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of illness. In discharging its duty under subsection (1), an integrated care board must, in particular, act with a view to securing continuous improvement in the outcomes that are achieved from the provision of the services. The outcomes relevant for the purposes of subsection (2) include, in particular, outcomes which show— the effectiveness of the services, the safety of the services, and the quality of the experience undergone by patients. Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions, have regard to the need to— reduce inequalities between persons with respect to their ability to access health services, and reduce inequalities between patients with respect to the outcomes achieved for them by the provision of health services (including the outcomes described in section 14Z34(3)). Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions, promote the involvement of patients, and their carers and representatives (if any), in decisions which relate to— the prevention or diagnosis of illness in the patients, or their care or treatment. Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions, act with a view to enabling patients to make choices with respect to aspects of health services provided to them. Each integrated care board must obtain advice appropriate for enabling it effectively to discharge its functions from persons who (taken together) have a broad range of professional expertise in— the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of illness, and the protection or improvement of public health. Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions, promote innovation in the provision of health services (including innovation in the arrangements made for their provision). Each integrated care board must, in the exercise of its functions, facilitate or otherwise promote— research on matters relevant to the health service, and the use in the health service of evidence obtained from research. Each integrated care board must, in exercising its functions, have regard to the need to promote education and training for the persons mentioned in section 1F(1) so as to assist the Secretary of State and Health Education England in the discharge of the duty under that section. Each integrated care board must exercise its functions with a view to securing that health services are provided in an integrated way where it considers that this would— improve the quality of those services (including the outcomes that are achieved from their provision), reduce inequalities between persons with respect to their ability to access those services, or reduce inequalities between persons with respect to the outcomes achieved for them by the provision of those services. Each integrated care board must exercise its functions with a view to securing that the provision of health services is integrated with the provision of health-related services or social care services where it considers that this would— improve the quality of the health services (including the outcomes that are achieved from the provision of those services), “health-related services” means services that may have an effect on the health of individuals but are not health services or social care services; “social care services” means services that are provided in pursuance of the social services functions of local authorities (within the meaning of the Local Authority Social Services Act 1970 or for the purposes of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014). For the purposes of this section, the provision of housing accommodation is a health-related service. In making a decision about the exercise of its functions, an integrated care board must have regard to all likely effects of the decision in relation to— In discharging the duty under this section, integrated care boards must have regard to guidance published by NHS England under section 13NB. In discharging the duty under this section, integrated care boards must have regard to guidance published by NHS England under section 13ND. This section applies in relation to any health services which are, or are to be, provided pursuant to arrangements made by an integrated care board in the exercise of its functions (“commissioning arrangements”). The integrated care board must make arrangements to secure that individuals to whom the services are being or may be provided, and their carers and representatives (if any), are involved (whether by being consulted or provided with information or in other ways)— in the planning of the commissioning arrangements by the integrated care board, in the development and consideration of proposals by the integrated care board for changes in the commissioning arrangements where the implementation of the proposals would have an impact on— the manner in which the services are delivered to the individuals (at the point when the service is received by them), or the range of health services available to them, and in decisions of the integrated care board affecting the operation of the commissioning arrangements where the implementation of the decisions would (if made) have such an impact. This section does not require an integrated care board to make arrangements in relation to matters to which a trust special administrator’s draft or final report under section 65F or 65I relates before— in a case where the administrator’s report relates to an NHS trust, NHS England and the Secretary of State have made their decisions under section 65K(1) and (2), or in a case where the administrator’s report relates to an NHS foundation trust, the Secretary of State is satisfied as mentioned in section 65KB(1) or 65KD(1) or makes a decision under section 65KD(9). Regulations may provide for any prescribed functions of an integrated care board to be exercised jointly with a Local Health Board. The regulations may permit or require any functions that are exercisable jointly by an integrated care board and a Local Health Board by virtue of the regulations to be exercised by a joint committee of those bodies. Arrangements made by virtue of this section do not affect the liability of an integrated care board for the exercise of any of its functions. An integrated care board has power to do anything specified in section 7(2)(a), (b) and (e) to (h) of the Health and Medicines Act 1988 (provision of goods etc) for the purpose of making additional income available for improving the health service. An integrated care board may exercise a power conferred by subsection (1) only to the extent that its exercise does not to any significant extent interfere with the exercise by the board of its other functions. An integrated care board may make payments— by way of grant to any of its partner NHS trusts or NHS foundation trusts; by way of grant or loan to a voluntary organisation which provides or arranges for the provision of services which are similar to the services in respect of which the integrated care board has functions. The payments may be made subject to such terms as the integrated care board considers appropriate. For the purposes of this Act an NHS trust or NHS foundation trust is a “partner” of an integrated care board if the trust— provides services for the purposes of the health service within the integrated care board’s area, and has the function, under the integrated care board’s constitution, of participating in the nomination of members as a result of falling within a description prescribed for the purposes paragraph 8(2)(a) of Schedule 1B. An integrated care board must— keep under review the skills, knowledge and experience that it considers necessary for members of the board to possess (when taken together) in order for the board effectively to carry out its functions, and if it considers that the board as constituted lacks the necessary skills, knowledge and experience, take such steps as it considers necessary to address or mitigate that shortcoming. NHS England may publish a document specifying— circumstances in which an integrated care board is liable to make a payment to a person in respect of services provided by that person in pursuance of arrangements made by another integrated care board in the discharge of commissioning functions, and how the amount of any such payment is to be determined. An integrated care board is required to make payments in accordance with any document published under subsection (1). Where an integrated care board is required to make a payment by virtue of subsection (2), no other integrated care board is liable to make it. Accordingly, any obligation of another integrated care board to make the payment ceases to have effect. Any sums payable by virtue of subsection (2) may be recovered summarily as a civil debt (but this does not affect any other method of recovery). NHS England may publish guidance for integrated care boards for the purpose of assisting them in understanding and applying any document published under subsection (1). In this section “commissioning functions” means the functions of integrated care boards in arranging for the provision of services as part of the health service. NHS England must publish guidance for integrated care boards on the discharge of their functions. Each integrated care board must have regard to guidance under this section. Before the start of each financial year, an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must prepare a plan setting out how they propose to exercise their functions in the next five years. The plan must, in particular— describe the health services for which the integrated care board proposes to make arrangements in the exercise of its functions by virtue of this Act; explain how the integrated care board proposes to discharge its duties under— sections 14Z34 to 14Z45 (general duties of integrated care boards), and sections 223GB to 223N (financial duties); set out any steps that the integrated care board proposes to take to implement any joint local health and wellbeing strategy to which it is required to have regard under section 116B(1) of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007; set out any steps that the integrated care board proposes to take to address the particular needs of children and young persons under the age of 25; set out any steps that the integrated care board proposes to take to address the particular needs of victims of abuse (including domestic abuse and sexual abuse, whether of children or adults). The integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must publish the plan. The integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must give a copy of the plan to— the integrated care partnership for the board’s area, each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board, and NHS England. NHS England may give a direction as to the date by which subsection (4) must be complied with. An integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must have regard to the plan under subsection (1). In this Chapter “relevant Health and Wellbeing Board”, in relation to an integrated care board (or an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts), means a Health and Wellbeing Board established by a local authority whose area coincides with, or includes the whole or any part of, the area of the integrated care board. In this Act “financial year”, in relation to an integrated care board, means— the period beginning with the date on which the integrated care board is established and ending with the 31 March following that date, and each successive period of twelve months. An integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts may revise a plan published under section 14Z52. If the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts revise the plan in a way that they consider to be significant, section 14Z52(3) and (4) apply in relation to the revised plan as they applied in relation to the original plan. If the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts revise the plan in any other way they must— publish a document setting out the changes, and give a copy of the document to— This section applies where an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts are— preparing a plan under section 14Z52, or revising a plan under section 14Z53 in a way that they consider to be significant. The integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must consult— the group of people for whom the integrated care board has core responsibility, and any other persons they consider it appropriate to consult. The integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must involve each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board in preparing or revising the plan. The integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must, in particular— give each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board a draft of the plan or (as the case may be) the plan as revised, and consult each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board on whether the draft takes proper account of each joint local health and wellbeing strategy published by it which relates to the period (or any part of the period) to which the plan relates. Where a Health and Wellbeing Board is consulted under subsection (4)(b)— it must respond with its opinion on the matter mentioned there; it may also give that opinion to NHS England. Where a Health and Wellbeing Board gives its opinion to NHS England under subsection (5)(b) it must inform the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts that it has done so (unless it informed them, in advance, that it was planning to do so). If an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts revise or further revise a draft after it has been given to each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board under subsection (4), subsections (4) and (5) apply in relation to the revised draft as they applied in relation to the original draft. An integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must include in a plan published under section 14Z52(3)— a summary of the views expressed by anyone consulted under subsection (2), an explanation of how they took account of those views, and a statement of the final opinion of each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board consulted in relation to the plan under subsection (4). In this section, “joint local health and wellbeing strategy” means a strategy under section 116A of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007. A relevant Health and Wellbeing Board— may give NHS England its opinion on whether a plan published by an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts under section 14Z52(3) takes proper account of each joint local health and wellbeing strategy published by the Health and Wellbeing Board which relates to the period (or any part of the period) to which the plan relates, and if it does so, must give the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts a copy of its opinion. In this section, “joint local health and wellbeing strategy” has the same meaning as in section 14Z54(9). Before the start of each financial year, an integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts must prepare a plan setting out their planned capital resource use. The plan must relate to such period as may be specified in a direction by the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State must publish any direction under subsection (2).

NHS England may give directions, in relation to a financial year— specifying descriptions of resources which must, or must not, be treated as capital resources for the purposes of this section; specifying uses of capital resources which must, or must not, be taken into account for the purposes of this section. The reference in subsection (1) to the use of capital resources is a reference to its expenditure, consumption or reduction in value. An integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts may revise a plan published under section 14Z56. If the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts revise the plan in a way that they consider to be significant, section 14Z56(4) and (5) apply in relation to the revised plan as they applied in relation to the original plan. If the integrated care board and its partner NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts revise the plan in any other way, they must— An integrated care board must, in each financial year, prepare a report (an “annual report”) on how it has discharged its functions in the previous financial year. An annual report must, in particular— explain how the integrated care board has discharged its duties under sections 14Z34 to 14Z45 and 14Z49 (general duties of integrated care boards), review the extent to which the board has exercised its functions in accordance with the plans published under— section 14Z52 (forward plan), and section 14Z56 (capital resource use plan), review the extent to which the board has exercised its functions consistently with NHS England’s views set out in the latest statement published under section 13SA(1) (views about how functions relating to inequalities information should be exercised), and review any steps that the board has taken to implement any joint local health and wellbeing strategy to which it was required to have regard under section 116B(1) of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007. In undertaking the review required by subsection (2)(d), an integrated care board must consult each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board. An annual report must include— a statement of the amount of expenditure incurred by the integrated care board during the financial year in relation to mental health, a calculation of the proportion of the expenditure incurred by the integrated care board during the financial year that relates to mental health, and NHS England may give directions to integrated care boards as to the form and content of an annual report. give a copy of its annual report to NHS England before the date specified by NHS England in a direction, and publish a copy of the annual report. NHS England must conduct a performance assessment of each integrated care board in respect of each financial year. A performance assessment is an assessment of how well the integrated care board has discharged its functions during that year. The assessment must, in particular, include an assessment of how well the integrated care board has discharged its duties under— section 14Z34 (improvement in quality of services), section 14Z35 (reducing inequalities), section 14Z38 (obtaining appropriate advice), section 14Z40 (duty in respect of research), section 14Z43 (duty to have regard to effect of decisions), section 14Z45 (public involvement and consultation), sections 223GB to 223N (financial duties), and section 116B(1) of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 (duty to have regard to assessments and strategies). In conducting a performance assessment, NHS England must consult each relevant Health and Wellbeing Board as to its views on any steps that the board has taken to implement any joint local health and wellbeing strategy to which the board was required to have regard under section 116B(1) of that Act of 2007.

NHS England may require an integrated care board to provide NHS England with information. The information must be provided in such form, and at such time or within such period, as NHS England may require. This section applies if NHS England is satisfied that— an integrated care board is failing or has failed to discharge any of its functions, or there is a significant risk that an integrated care board will fail to do so. NHS England may direct the integrated care board to discharge such of those functions in such manner and within such period or periods as may be specified in the direction. NHS England may direct— the integrated care board, or the chief executive of the integrated care board, to cease to perform any functions for such period or periods as may be specified in the direction. NHS England may— terminate the appointment of the integrated care board’s chief executive, and direct the chair of the board as to which individual to appoint as a replacement and on what terms. Where a direction is given under subsection (3)(a) NHS England may— exercise, on behalf of the integrated care board, any of the functions that are the subject of the direction; direct another integrated care board to perform any of those functions on behalf of the integrated care board, in such manner and within such period or periods as may be specified in the direction.

In relation to an offence committed before the coming into force of section 281(5) of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, the reference in subsection (2)(a) to 51 weeks is to be read as a reference to 6 months. In section 19 (medical devices: information systems)— in subsection (6)— in paragraph (b) for “contained in an information system” substitute “that is contained in an information system or has been analysed in combination with such information”; in paragraph (c) for “contained in an information system” substitute “mentioned in paragraph (b)”; Regulations under this section may provide that the disclosure of information by virtue of this section does not breach— In section 43 (power to make consequential etc provision)— in subsection (1), for “This section” substitute “Subsection (2)”; Provision made by regulations under section 7A or 19 by virtue of subsection (2)(a) may include provision— changing the territorial extent of provisions of Chapter 2 of Part 9 of the Health and Social Care Act 2012 (constitution and functions etc of the Health and Social Care Information Centre), or otherwise amending that Chapter.

In section 47 (procedure for regulations), in subsection (2), after “2(1)” insert “, 7A(1)”. In section 253 of the Health and Social Care Act 2012 (general duties of Information Centre), after subsection (2) insert— Subsections (1) and (2) do not apply in relation to the functions of the Information Centre by virtue of the Medicines and Medical Devices Act 2021. In this Part— “relevant body” means— Health Education England, the Health Research Authority, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, the Human Tissue Authority, or “Special Health Authority” means a Special Health Authority established under section 28 of the National Health Service Act 2006. The Secretary of State may by regulations transfer a function of a relevant body to another relevant body. Regulations under this section may be made only if the Secretary of State considers that they serve the purpose of improving the exercise of public functions, having regard to— efficiency, effectiveness, economy, and securing appropriate accountability to Ministers. Regulations under this section may not transfer a function of NHS England if the Secretary of State considers that to do so would make NHS England redundant. The provision which may be made by regulations under this section by virtue of section 183(1)(a) includes provision— modifying functions of either relevant body (see further section 105(1)); modifying the constitutional or funding arrangements of either relevant body (see further section 105(2) and (3)); abolishing the relevant body from which functions are transferred, where the Secretary of State considers that it is redundant as a result of the transfer of functions. Where— regulations under this section contain provision for a body to exercise a function that is exercisable in relation to Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, immediately before that provision takes effect, the function is exercisable by another body whose constitutional arrangements contain provision (however expressed) for the body to include a member whose experience, functions or appointment are connected with that part of the United Kingdom, and the Secretary of State considers that the constitutional arrangements of the body referred to in paragraph (a) do not contain corresponding provision as to membership, the Secretary of State must make provision by virtue of section 183(1)(a) modifying the constitutional arrangements of the body referred to in paragraph (a) so that they contain corresponding provision as to membership. In this section, “Minister” means a Minister of the Crown (as defined by section 8 of the Ministers of the Crown Act 1975). The Secretary of State may by regulations provide for a relevant body to exercise specified functions of the Secretary of State on behalf of the Secretary of State. The functions that may be specified are — any functions of the Secretary of State which relate to the health service in England; any other functions that the Secretary of State may provide for a Special Health Authority to exercise. modifying functions of the relevant body (see further section 105(1)); modifying the constitutional or funding arrangements of the relevant body (see further section 105(2) and (3)). regulations under this section contain provision for a relevant body to exercise a function of the Secretary of State that is exercisable in relation to Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, immediately before that provision takes effect, the Secretary of State’s function is exercisable by a body whose constitutional arrangements contain provision (however expressed) for the body to include a member whose experience, functions or appointment are connected with that part of the United Kingdom, and the Secretary of State considers that the relevant body’s constitutional arrangements do not contain corresponding provision as to membership, the Secretary of State must make provision by virtue of section 183(1)(a) modifying the relevant body’s constitutional arrangements so that they contain corresponding provision as to membership. Regulations under this section may make provision for determining whether and in what circumstances the Secretary of State or a relevant body is liable for the exercise of the specified functions by the relevant body. The specification of a function in regulations under this section does not preclude the Secretary of State from exercising the function. In this section “the health service” has the same meaning as in the National Health Service Act 2006 (see section 275(1) of that Act). In sections 103 and 104, references to modifying the functions of a body include— conferring a function on the body; abolishing a function of the body; changing the purpose or objective for which the body exercises a function; changing the conditions under which the body exercises a function. In sections 103 and 104, references to the constitutional arrangements of a body include matters relating to— the name of the body; the chair of the body (including qualifications and procedures for appointment and functions); members of the body (including the number of members, qualifications and procedures for appointment and functions); staff of the body exercising functions on its behalf (including qualifications and procedures for appointment and functions); the body’s powers to employ staff; governing procedures and arrangements (including the role and membership of committees and sub-committees); reports and accounts.

Regulations under section 103 or 104 may repeal and re-enact (but may not create)— a power to make subordinate legislation, a power of forcible entry, search or seizure, a power to compel the giving of evidence, or a criminal offence. The provision which may be made by regulations under section 103 or 104 may be made by repealing, revoking or amending provision made by or under an Act, whenever passed or made. The provision which may be made by regulations under section 103 or 104 by virtue of section 183(1)(a) includes provision repealing, revoking or amending provision made by or under any of the following, whenever passed or made— an Act; an Act of the Scottish Parliament; a Measure or Act of Senedd Cymru; Northern Ireland legislation. The Secretary of State may, in connection with regulations under section 103 or 104, make one or more schemes for the transfer of property, rights and liabilities (“transfer schemes”). A transfer scheme in connection with regulations under section 103 may provide for the transfer of property, rights or liabilities to any appropriate person from the relevant body from which functions are transferred by the regulations. A transfer scheme in connection with regulations under section 104 may provide for the transfer of property, rights or liabilities to any appropriate person from— the Secretary of State, a Special Health Authority, or any relevant body ceasing to exercise functions of the Secretary of State as a result of the regulations. In subsection (5)(f), “the TUPE regulations” means the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/246). For the purposes of subsection (8)(a)— the terms of the individual’s employment in the civil service of the State are to be treated as constituting the terms of the contract of employment. In this section “appropriate person” means— any relevant body, an NHS trust established under section 25 of the National Health Service Act 2006. anything transferred under a scheme under section 106, or Before making regulations under section 103 or 104, the Secretary of State must— obtain the consent of the Scottish Ministers in relation to any provision— which would be within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament, if contained in an Act of that Parliament, and is not merely incidental to, or consequential on, provision which would be outside that legislative competence, or which modifies the functions of the Scottish Ministers; obtain the consent of the Welsh Ministers in relation to any provision— which would be within the legislative competence of Senedd Cymru, if contained in an Act of the Senedd, and is not merely incidental to, or consequential on, provision which would be outside that legislative competence, or which modifies the functions of the Welsh Ministers; obtain the consent of a Northern Ireland department in relation to any provision— which would be within the legislative competence of the Northern Ireland Assembly, if contained in an Act of that Assembly, and is not merely incidental to, or consequential on, provision which would be outside that legislative competence, or which modifies the functions of a Northern Ireland department. Consent is not required under subsection (1)(c)(i) in relation to any provision if— Before making regulations under section 103 or 104, the Secretary of State must consult the following about a draft of the regulations— any body to which the regulations relate, and such other persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. If, as a result of consultation under this section, it appears to the Secretary of State appropriate to change the draft regulations, the Secretary of State must carry out such further consultation with respect to the changes as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. It is immaterial for the purposes of this section whether consent is obtained or consultation is carried out before or after the commencement of this section. A body corporate called the Health Services Safety Investigations Body is established. In this Part that body is referred to as “the HSSIB”. Schedule 13 contains further provision about the HSSIB. The HSSIB has the function of investigating incidents that— occur in England during the provision of health care services, and have or may have implications for the safety of patients. The purpose of the investigations is to— identify risks to the safety of patients, and address those risks by facilitating the improvement of systems and practices in the provision of NHS services or other health care services in England. In particular, where an investigation relates to an incident that did not occur during the provision of NHS services, the HSSIB must consider whether, in relation to any risks identified, the systems and practices in the provision of NHS services could be improved. The purpose of the investigations does not include assessing or determining— blame, civil or criminal liability, or whether action needs to be taken in respect of an individual by a regulatory body. In this Part, an incident within subsection (1) is called a “qualifying incident”. The HSSIB’s function under section 110 includes determining which qualifying incidents it will investigate, subject to subsection (2). The Secretary of State may direct the HSSIB to carry out an investigation of— a particular qualifying incident that has occurred, or qualifying incidents that have occurred and are of a particular description. A direction under subsection (2) may specify the date by which the HSSIB must publish its final report (see section 113). A direction under subsection (2)— must be in writing; may be varied or revoked by subsequent directions; may provide for a person to exercise a discretion in dealing with any matter. Once the HSSIB has begun an investigation into a qualifying incident, it must, in such manner as it thinks appropriate, publish a statement which— reports that it has begun the investigation, contains a brief description of the incident, and sets out, in general terms, the issues that the HSSIB expects to consider in the investigation. The HSSIB may give advance notice of a statement under subsection (5) to any person the HSSIB considers may be affected by the investigation. Where the HSSIB discontinues an investigation, it must, in such manner as it thinks appropriate, publish a statement which— reports that it has discontinued the investigation, and gives its reasons for doing so. Where the HSSIB determines not to investigate a qualifying incident, it may give notice of its determination to any person the HSSIB considers to have an interest in the determination. Notice under subsection (8) may include— a brief description of the incident, and the HSSIB’s reasons for not investigating it. The HSSIB must determine and publish— the criteria it will use in determining which incidents it investigates, the principles which are to govern investigations, the processes to be followed in carrying out investigations, and the processes for ensuring that, so far as reasonable and practicable, patients and their families are involved in investigations. The processes determined under subsection (1)(c) must include— the procedures and methods to be used in investigations (including in the interviewing of persons), and the time periods within which the HSSIB aims to complete investigations. Different processes under subsection (1)(c) or (d) may be determined for different descriptions of investigation. Anything published under subsection (1)(d) must be— easily accessible to patients and their families, and capable of being easily understood by them. The HSSIB must review the criteria, principles and processes— within the period of three years beginning with their publication under subsection (1), and subsequently within each period of five years beginning with the completion of the previous review. If the HSSIB revises the criteria, principles and processes it must publish them as revised. In determining or revising the criteria, principles and processes the HSSIB must consult— any other persons the HSSIB considers appropriate. When the HSSIB completes an investigation, it must publish a report on the outcome of the investigation (the “final report”). The final report must— contain a statement of findings of fact made as a result of the investigation and an analysis of those findings, make such recommendations as to the action to be taken by any person as the HSSIB considers appropriate, and set out the HSSIB’s conclusions on the matters it considered in accordance with section 110(3) (but only if that provision is applicable to the investigation). The final report must focus on ascertaining risks to the safety of patients and any recommendations as to the action to be taken by any person must focus on addressing those risks (rather than on the activities of individuals involved in the incident). In particular, the final report may not include an assessment or determination of— Information which is protected material (see section 122(2)) may be disclosed in a final report if the HSSIB determines that the benefits to the safety of patients served by the disclosure outweigh— any adverse impact on current or future investigations by deterring persons from providing information to the HSSIB, and any adverse impact on securing the improvement of the safety of health care services provided to patients in England. The final report may not, without their consent, include the name of any individual— who has provided information to the HSSIB for the purposes of the investigation, or who was involved in the incident being investigated. Where an investigation is carried out pursuant to a direction under section 111, the HSSIB must send a copy of the final report to the Secretary of State. While the HSSIB is carrying out an investigation, it may publish a report on any matter relating to the investigation (an “interim report”). An interim report may— contain a statement of findings of fact made as a result of the investigation to date and an analysis of those findings, set out the HSSIB’s conclusions to date on the matters it has considered in accordance with section 110(3). Subsections (3) to (7) of section 113 apply in relation to an interim report as they apply in relation to a final report. Before it publishes a final or interim report, the HSSIB— must send a draft of the report to any person who the HSSIB reasonably believes could be adversely affected by the report, and may send a draft of the report to any other person who the HSSIB believes should be sent a draft. If a person who the HSSIB reasonably believes could have been adversely affected by the report has died, the draft report must be sent to the person (if any) who appears to the HSSIB to best represent the interests of the person who has died. The HSSIB must notify every person to whom a draft report is sent that the person has an opportunity to comment on the draft report before the deadline specified by the HSSIB. If a person’s comments on a draft report are not taken into account in the final or interim report as published, the HSSIB must explain to the person why that is. This section applies where a final or interim report includes recommendations as to the action to be taken by any person. The HSSIB must, in such manner as it thinks appropriate, send the report to that person or make it available to them. The report must specify the deadline for that person to provide a written response. Before that deadline, the person must respond to the HSSIB in writing setting out the actions they propose to take in pursuance of the recommendations. The HSSIB may publish the response. Subsection (4) does not require a person to do anything that they could be required to do by an Act of Senedd Cymru made without the consent of a Minister of the Crown. A final report, an interim report and the draft of a final or interim report sent to a person under section 115 are not admissible in any proceedings within subsection (2). Those proceedings are— proceedings to determine civil or criminal liability in respect of any matter; proceedings before any employment tribunal; proceedings before a regulatory body (including proceedings for the purposes of investigating an allegation); proceedings to determine an appeal against a decision made in proceedings falling within paragraphs (a) to (c). But the High Court may order that a final or interim report is admissible in proceedings within subsection (2) on an application by a person who is a party to the proceedings or otherwise entitled to appear in them. The HSSIB may make representations to the High Court about any application under subsection (3). The High Court may make an order under subsection (3) only if it determines that the interests of justice served by admitting the report outweigh— any adverse impact on current or future investigations by deterring persons from providing information for the purposes of investigations, and If an investigator considers it necessary for the purposes of an investigation, the investigator may— enter and inspect premises in England, other than premises used wholly or mainly as a private dwelling; inspect and take copies of any document at, or capable of being viewed using equipment at, the premises; inspect any equipment or other item at the premises; seize and remove from the premises any document, equipment or other item (unless that would risk the safety of any patient). In subsection (1)(b) the reference to inspecting and taking copies of any document includes requiring any document which is kept in electronic form to be produced in a form in which it is legible and can be taken away. Where any document, equipment or other item is seized by an investigator, or any copy of a document is taken, it may be retained by the HSSIB for so long as is necessary for the purposes of the investigation. An investigator exercising any power conferred by this section must, if asked, produce evidence of the investigator’s authority from the HSSIB to act on its behalf. The powers conferred by subsection (1) may be exercised in relation to premises in which there is a Crown interest, but only if the HSSIB gives reasonable notice to the occupier of the premises of its intention to enter and inspect the premises. But if the Secretary of State certifies that it appears to the Secretary of State appropriate in the interests of national security that the powers conferred by subsection (1)— should not be exercisable in relation to any premises in which there is a Crown interest and which are specified in the certificate, or should not be exercisable in relation to any such premises which are so specified except in circumstances specified in the certificate, those powers are not exercisable in relation to those premises or (as the case may be) are not exercisable except in the circumstances specified. In this section “Crown interest” means— an interest belonging to a government department or held in trust for Her Majesty for the purposes of a government department; an interest belonging to Her Majesty in right of the Crown; an interest belonging to Her Majesty in right of the Duchy of Lancaster; an interest belonging to the Duchy of Cornwall. An investigator may by notice require any person— to attend at a specified time and place and to provide information by answering questions; to provide specified information, or information of a specified description, by a specified date; to provide specified documents, equipment or items, or documents, equipment or items of a specified description, by a specified date. An investigator may give a person a notice only if the investigator reasonably believes that— in the case of a requirement under subsection (1)(a), the person is able to provide information which is necessary for the purposes of an investigation; in the case of a requirement under subsection (1)(b)— it is necessary to obtain the information for the purposes of an investigation, and the person is able to provide it; in the case of a requirement under subsection (1)(c)— it is necessary to obtain the document, equipment or other item for the purposes of the HSSIB’s investigation function, and the person is able to provide it. But a person is not required by virtue of subsection (1) to provide any information, document, equipment or other item where— its provision would risk the safety of any patient, its provision might incriminate the person, or in the case of information or a document, the person would be entitled to refuse to provide it in any proceedings in any court on the grounds that it is the subject of legal professional privilege. A notice must— specify the grounds for the investigator believing the matters in subsection (2), give an explanation of the consequences of failing to comply with the notice (see section 121), and attach evidence of the investigator’s authority from the HSSIB to exercise the powers conferred by this section. If a notice requires a person to provide anything which is kept in electronic form, the notice may require it to be provided in a form in which it is legible. An investigator may withdraw a notice under subsection (1) by giving notice of withdrawal to the person to whom the notice was given. Where any document, equipment or other item is provided to an investigator pursuant to a notice, it may be retained by the HSSIB for so long as is necessary for the purposes of the HSSIB’s investigation function, unless its retention would risk the safety of any patient. Where a person attends to answer questions pursuant to a notice under subsection (1)(a), the HSSIB— must reimburse the person the reasonable costs incurred in attending; may record, by any means, the answers given. In this section “specified” means specified in the notice. A person may disclose any information, document, equipment or other item to the HSSIB if the person reasonably believes that the disclosure is necessary for the purpose of enabling the HSSIB to carry out its investigation function. A person commits an offence if the person— intentionally obstructs an investigator in the performance of functions conferred by section 118, or fails without reasonable excuse to comply with a notice given under section 119. A person commits an offence if the person provides information to the HSSIB for the purposes of the HSSIB’s investigation function which the person knows or suspects is false or misleading in a material respect. It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under subsection (2) to show that— the person reasonably believed that the information would assist the HSSIB in carrying out its investigation function, and at the time of providing the information the person informed the HSSIB that the person knew or suspected that it was false or misleading. If a person charged with an offence under subsection (2) relies on the defence under subsection (3), and evidence is adduced which is sufficient to raise an issue with respect to that defence, the court must assume that the defence is satisfied unless the prosecution proves beyond reasonable doubt that it is not. A person who commits an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction to a fine. Subsections (1)(a) and (5) apply to persons in the public service of the Crown as they apply to other persons. The HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSIB, must not disclose protected material to any person. In this Part “protected material” means any information, document, equipment or other item which— is held by the HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSIB, for the purposes of the HSSIB’s investigation function, relates to a qualifying incident (whether or not investigated by the HSSIB), and has not already been lawfully made available to the public. In this Part “individual connected with the HSSIB” means— a member of the HSSIB, a member of a committee or sub-committee of the HSSIB, an investigator, or an individual (other than an investigator) who works for the HSSIB.

An individual who was, but has ceased to be, connected with the HSSIB must not disclose to any person, other than the HSSIB or an individual connected with the HSSIB, any information, document, equipment or other item held by that individual— which the individual obtained because they were connected with the HSSIB, which, at the time they ceased to be connected with the HSSIB, was protected material, and which has not already been lawfully made available to the public. Section 122(1) does not apply to a disclosure which is required or authorised by— Schedule 14, any other provision of this Part, or regulations made by the Secretary of State.

Regulations under subsection (1)(c) may, for example, require or authorise disclosures of protected material by reference to— the kind of material that it is (for example, a particular kind of equipment), the matters to which it relates, the person from whom it was obtained, the purpose for which it was produced or is held, or the purpose for which it is disclosed. But regulations under subsection (1)(c) may not require or authorise disclosures of protected material by reference to the qualifying incident to which the material relates. Regulations under subsection (1)(c) may provide for a person to exercise a discretion in dealing with any matter. Subject to subsection (6), regulations under subsection (1)(c) may provide that disclosures which are required or authorised by the regulations do not breach— obligations of confidence owed by the person making the disclosure, or any other restrictions on disclosure. Nothing in regulations under subsection (1)(c) operates to require or authorise disclosures which would contravene the data protection legislation (but, for the purposes of this subsection, in determining whether any disclosure required or authorised by the regulations would do so, take the requirement or authorisation into account). breaches the prohibition in section 122(1) by knowingly or recklessly disclosing protected material to another person, and knows or suspects that the disclosure is prohibited.

The person not connected with the HSSIB to whom protected material is disclosed as specified in subsection (3) commits an offence if the person— knowingly or recklessly discloses the protected material to another person without reasonable excuse, and knows or suspects that it is protected material. A power under any enactment (whenever passed or made) other than this Part to require the disclosure of, or to seize, any information, document, equipment or other item may not be used— to require the disclosure of protected material by the HSSIB, or to seize protected material from the HSSIB. Subsection (1) applies to a power to require disclosure, or to seize, however it is expressed (and, for example, it applies if the power is to require a person to give, supply, furnish or produce any information, document, equipment or other item). Subsection (1) does not apply to a power to the extent that the provision conferring it is within the legislative competence of a devolved legislature. A provision is within the legislative competence of a devolved legislature if— it would be within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament if it were contained in an Act of that Parliament; it would be within the legislative competence of Senedd Cymru if it were contained in an Act of the Senedd (including any provision that could only be made with the consent of a Minister of the Crown); the provision— would be within the legislative competence of the Northern Ireland Assembly if contained in an Act of that Assembly, and would not, if contained in a Bill for an Act of the Northern Ireland Assembly, result in the Bill requiring the consent of the Secretary of State under section 8 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998. In this section “enactment” includes an enactment comprised in subordinate legislation within the meaning of the Interpretation Act 1978. References to the HSSIB in subsection (1) include— an individual connected with the HSSIB, and an individual who was, but has ceased to be, connected with the HSSIB. the HSSIB is carrying out an investigation into a qualifying incident, and a listed person is also carrying out an investigation into the same or a related incident.

The following are listed persons— an NHS foundation trust, an NHS trust or any other person providing NHS services; a Special Health Authority; the Care Quality Commission; the Health Research Authority; the Human Tissue Authority; the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority; . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the Health Service Commissioner for England; the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration; any regulatory body; the Health and Safety Executive; the Commissioner for Patient Safety. The HSSIB must publish guidance about when a qualifying incident is to be regarded as related to another incident for the purposes of this section. If the HSSIB revises the guidance the HSSIB must publish it as revised.

In subsection (1) “relevant NHS body” means— For the purposes of this section giving assistance includes— disseminating information about best practice, developing standards to be adopted, and giving advice, guidance or training. Subsection (1) does not apply if— the assistance requested is giving advice, guidance or training, and the HSSIB determines that it is impracticable for it to give the assistance. The HSSIB may give assistance to a person other than a relevant NHS body in relation to any matter connected with the carrying out of investigations if the HSSIB has been requested to provide the assistance by the person to whom it is to be given. But the HSSIB may give assistance under subsection (5) only to the extent that the assistance does not to any significant extent interfere with the exercise by the HSSIB of its investigation function. The activities which the HSSIB may carry out in, or in connection with, giving assistance under subsection (5) are not restricted to activities carried out in the United Kingdom. The HSSIB may impose charges for or in connection with giving assistance under subsection (5). Charges under subsection (8) may be calculated on the basis that the HSSIB considers to be the appropriate commercial basis. The HSSIB may enter into an agreement with any person for the HSSIB to carry out an investigation falling within subsection (2). An investigation falls within this subsection if— it is an investigation into one or more incidents that have occurred, or are occurring, in the United Kingdom— during the provision of any of the services mentioned in subsection (3), or at premises at which any of those services are, or were, provided, the incident or incidents have or may have implications for the safety of persons for whom those services are provided, the investigation is carried out for the purpose of identifying risks to the safety of such persons and addressing those risks by facilitating the improvement of systems and practices in the provision of any of the services mentioned in subsection (3), and the investigation does not involve the assessment or determination of blame or civil or criminal liability. The services referred to in subsection (2) are— services provided for the purposes of the health service continued under section 1(1) of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006, and health care, within the meaning of the Health and Social Care (Reform) Act (Northern Ireland) 2009, provided for the purposes of the system promoted under section 2(1) of that Act. The HSSIB may impose charges for providing services under an agreement under subsection (1). Those charges must not exceed the costs incurred by the HSSIB in providing the services. The HSSIB may enter into an agreement under subsection (1) only if it considers that the provision of the services under the agreement will not to any significant extent interfere with the exercise by the HSSIB of its investigation function. This section applies if the Secretary of State considers that— the HSSIB is failing or has failed to exercise any of its functions, and the failure is significant. The Secretary of State may direct the HSSIB to exercise such of its functions, in such manner and within such period, as the direction specifies. But the Secretary of State may not give a direction under subsection (2) which directs the outcome of a particular investigation. If the HSSIB fails to comply with a direction under subsection (2), the Secretary of State may— exercise the functions specified in the direction, or make arrangements for some other person to exercise them on the Secretary of State’s behalf. The reference in subsection (1)(a) to exercising a function includes a reference to exercising it properly. may be varied or revoked by subsequent directions. Before the end of the period mentioned in subsection (2), the Secretary of State must— review the effectiveness of the exercise by the HSSIB of its investigation function, prepare and publish a report of the review, and lay the report before Parliament.

In subsection (1) “officer”, in relation to a body corporate, means— a director, manager, secretary or other similar officer, or any person purporting to act in any such capacity. In paragraph (a) “director”, in relation to a body corporate whose affairs are managed by its members, means a member of the body corporate.

The constitution may not confer power to remove the chair from office on any person other than NHS England, and any such power must be expressed to be subject to the approval of the Secretary of State.

The constitution may make further provision in connection with the membership of the integrated care board, including provision about— how members are to be appointed; qualification and disqualification for membership; the tenure of members (including the circumstances in which a member ceases to hold office or may be removed or suspended from office); eligibility for re-appointment; terms of appointment (including provision about the remuneration or allowances of the chair and ordinary members); the validation of proceedings in the event of a vacancy or defect in an appointment.

The constitution must specify arrangements for the exercise of the integrated care board’s functions (including its functions in determining the terms and conditions of its employees). The arrangements may include provision— for the appointment of committees or sub-committees of the integrated care board, and for any such committees to consist of or include persons other than members or employees of the integrated care board. The arrangements may include provision for any functions of the integrated care board to be exercised on its behalf by— any of its members or employees; a committee or sub-committee of the board.

In sub-paragraph (4) “commissioning functions” means the functions of an integrated care board in arranging for the provision of services as part of the health service. The constitution must specify the procedure to be followed by the integrated care board in making decisions. The constitution must also specify the arrangements to be made by the integrated care board for securing that there is transparency about the decisions of the board and the manner in which they are made.

An integrated care board may make arrangements for a person to be seconded to the board to serve as a member of the board’s staff. A period of secondment to an integrated care board does not affect the continuity of a person’s employment with the employer from whose service the person is seconded. In paragraphs 11 and 18 a reference to an employee of an integrated care board includes a person seconded to the board. In paragraph 7(2) the reference to an employee of an integrated care board includes any of the following seconded to the board— The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this paragraph so as to provide that other references in this Act to an employee of an integrated care board include persons, or persons of a prescribed description, seconded to the board.

If an integrated care board enters into an externally financed development agreement it may also, in connection with that agreement, enter into an agreement with a person who falls within sub-paragraph (3)(b) in relation to the externally financed development agreement. In sub-paragraph (3)(b) “another party” means any party to the agreement other than the integrated care board. The fact that an agreement made by an integrated care board has not been certified under this paragraph does not affect its validity. An integrated care board must keep proper accounts and proper records in relation to the accounts. An integrated care board must prepare annual accounts in respect of each financial year. NHS England may, with the approval of the Secretary of State, direct an integrated care board to prepare accounts in respect of such period or periods as may be specified in the direction.

An integrated care board must send any audited accounts prepared under this paragraph to NHS England by the date specified in a direction by NHS England. NHS England may direct an integrated care board to send it any unaudited accounts prepared under this paragraph by the date specified in a direction by NHS England.

The commissioner and the provider of services mentioned in subsection (1) must comply with rules under that subsection.

In subsection (1)(b) the “objection percentage” is the proportion (expressed as a percentage) of integrated care boards or (as the case may be) relevant providers that objected. NHS England must consult such persons as appear to NHS England to be representative of the integrated care boards or relevant providers from whom objections were received. If, having complied with subsection (3)— NHS England must consult again under section 114C. If, having complied with subsection (3), NHS England decides not to amend the proposed NHS payment scheme, it may publish the scheme but, before doing so, must— publish a notice stating that decision and setting out the reasons for it, and send a copy of the notice to— the persons consulted under subsection (3), and the integrated care boards or relevant providers from whom objections were received. NHS England may amend the NHS payment scheme during the period for which it has effect, provided that, in the opinion of NHS England, the amendments are not so significant as to require publication of a new edition of the NHS payment scheme. In deciding whether the amendments are so significant as to require the publication of a new edition of the NHS payment scheme, NHS England must have regard to— the proportion of integrated care boards that would be affected by the proposed amendments; the proportion of relevant providers that would be affected by the proposed amendments; the impact that the proposed amendments would have on integrated care boards and relevant providers that would be affected by them; whether any integrated care boards or relevant providers would be disproportionately affected by the proposed amendments; the amount of any increase or decrease in prices that would result from the proposed amendments. If NHS England amends the NHS payment scheme, it must publish the NHS payment scheme as amended. Before amending the NHS payment scheme, NHS England must, in accordance with subsections (5) to (7), consult the following about the proposed amendments— any integrated care boards that would be affected by the proposed amendments; any relevant providers that would be affected by the proposed amendments; NHS England must publish a notice specifying— the proposed amendments, and when the period within which representations may be made about the proposed amendments (“the consultation period”) will come to an end.

NHS England must publish a procedure for entering into undertakings. NHS England may revise the procedure and, if it does so, NHS England must publish the procedure as revised. NHS England must consult such persons as it considers appropriate before publishing or revising the procedure. Where NHS England accepts an undertaking, NHS England must publish the undertaking. But NHS England must not under sub-paragraph (1) publish any part of an undertaking which contains information which it is satisfied is— commercial information the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm the legitimate business interests of the person to whom it relates; information relating to the private affairs of an individual the disclosure of which would, or might, significantly harm that person’s interests. The terms of an undertaking (including, in particular, the action specified under it and the period so specified within which the action must be taken) may be varied if both the integrated care board giving the undertaking and NHS England agree. Where NHS England is satisfied that an undertaking has been complied with, NHS England must issue a certificate to that effect (referred to in this Schedule as a “compliance certificate”). An integrated care board which has given an undertaking may at any time make an application to NHS England for a compliance certificate. The application must be made in such form, and accompanied by such information, as NHS England requires. NHS England must decide whether or not to issue a compliance certificate, and give notice to the applicant of its decision, before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day after that on which the application is received. An appeal lies to the First-tier Tribunal against a decision of NHS England to refuse an application for a compliance certificate. The grounds for an appeal under this paragraph are that the decision was— based on an error of fact, wrong in law, or unfair or unreasonable. On an appeal under this paragraph, the Tribunal may confirm NHS England’s decision or direct that it is not to have effect. Where NHS England is satisfied that an integrated care board which has given an undertaking has supplied NHS England with inaccurate, misleading or incorrect information in relation to the undertaking— NHS England may treat the integrated care board as having failed to comply with the undertaking, and if NHS England decides so to treat the integrated care board, NHS England must by notice revoke any certificate of compliance given to that integrated care board.

In this paragraph references to the transfer of property include the grant of a lease. In this paragraph— The HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSB, may disclose protected material to an individual connected with the HSSIB if— the person making the disclosure, or an authorised person, reasonably believes that the disclosure is necessary for the purposes of the carrying out of the HSSIB’s investigation function. In this paragraph “authorised person” means an individual connected with the HSSIB who is authorised by the HSSIB for the purposes of this paragraph. The HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSIB, may disclose protected material to a person not connected with the HSSIB if the Chief Investigator reasonably believes that the disclosure is necessary for the purposes of the carrying out of the HSSIB’s investigation function. The HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSIB, may disclose protected material to a person if the Chief Investigator reasonably believes that the disclosure is necessary for the purposes of the prosecution or investigation of an offence under section 121 (offences relating to investigations) or 124 (unlawful disclosure). The HSSIB, or an individual connected with the HSSIB, may disclose protected material to a person where— the Chief Investigator reasonably believes that the disclosure of the material is necessary to address a serious and continuing risk to the safety of any patient or to the public, the Chief Investigator reasonably believes that the person is in a position to address the risk, and the disclosure is only to the extent necessary to enable the person to take steps to address the risk. A person may apply to the High Court for an order that any protected material be disclosed by the HSSIB to the person for the purposes specified in the application. Those purposes may include onward disclosure by the person making the application to a person specified in the application. The HSSIB may make representations to the High Court about any application under this paragraph. The High Court may make an order on an application under this paragraph only if it determines that the interests of justice served by the disclosure outweigh— any adverse impact on current and future investigations by deterring persons from providing information for the purposes of investigations, and The Chief Investigator may arrange for the Chief Investigator’s functions under any provision of this Schedule to be exercised by an investigator. An arrangement under this paragraph may relate to a particular case, a particular class of case or all cases. The HSSIB must publish guidance as to— when it might be appropriate for protected material to be disclosed under paragraph 2, 3, or 4, the types of protected material which it might be appropriate to disclose under any such provision, and the processes which should be used when disclosing protected material under any such provision. If the HSSIB revises the guidance, the HSSIB must publish it as revised.

Section 14 (conditions of storage licences) is amended as follows. In subsection (1), for paragraph (c) substitute— that the requirements of subsection (3) (maximum storage periods) are met, For subsections (3) to (5) substitute— The requirements referred to in subsection (1)(c) are as follows— gametes must not be kept in storage for longer than such period not exceeding 55 years beginning with the day on which they are first placed in storage as the licence may specify; an embryo must not be kept in storage for treatment purposes for longer than such period not exceeding 55 years beginning with the day on which it is first so kept as the licence may specify; an embryo that is kept in storage for the research or training purpose but not for treatment purposes must not be so kept for longer than such period not exceeding 10 years beginning with the day on which consent was given under Schedule 3 to the storage of the embryo for that purpose as the licence may specify; a human admixed embryo must not be kept in storage for longer than such period not exceeding 10 years beginning with the day on which it is first placed in storage as the licence may specify. Where under Schedule 3 consent is given to the storage of an embryo for the training or research purpose by different persons on different days, the reference in subsection (3)(c) to the day on which consent was given is to be taken as a reference to the last of those days. “treatment purposes” are purposes referred to in paragraph 2(1)(a) or (b) of Schedule 3; the “training purpose” is the purpose referred to in paragraph 2(1)(ba) of that Schedule; the “research purpose” is the purpose referred to in paragraph 2(1)(c) of that Schedule. In section 47 (index), omit the entry for the “Statutory storage period”. In Schedule 3 (consents), in paragraph 2(2)(a), for “statutory storage period” substitute “period for which, by virtue of section 14(3), the gametes, embryo or human admixed embryo may be stored under the licence”. In section 14 (conditions of storage licences), in subsection (1), after paragraph (c) insert— that any gametes, embryos or human admixed embryos that have been kept in storage pursuant to the licence must, once they may no longer lawfully be so kept, be removed from storage and disposed of, and In section 17 (the person responsible), in subsection (1)(c), for “allowed to perish” substitute “removed from storage”. Schedule 3 (consents) is amended as follows. In paragraph 1— in sub-paragraph (1), before the first “and” insert “any renewal of consent,”; in sub-paragraph (2), before the first “and” insert “any renewal of consent by a person unable to sign,”; in sub-paragraph (3)— the words from ““effective consent” to the end become paragraph (a); references to renewal of consent are to renewal of consent to the storage of any gametes or embryo under paragraph 11A or 11C. In paragraph 3, in sub-paragraph (1), after “gives” insert “or renews”. After paragraph 11 insert— This paragraph applies where— the gametes of a person (“P”) are in storage, P’s consent to the storage of the gametes is required under paragraph 8(1), there is effective consent from P to the storage of the gametes, and the gametes are being kept for use for the purposes of providing treatment services to— P, or P and another person together. The person keeping the gametes in storage (“K”) must, in each consent period, request P to renew consent to storage of the gametes within the renewal period. For the meaning of “consent period” and “renewal period”, see paragraph 11B. A request under sub-paragraph (2) must be given in writing before the start of the renewal period. The duty in sub-paragraph (2) ceases to apply if K is notified that P has died. The duty in sub-paragraph (2) does not apply in relation to any consent period if— K has at any time been informed in writing that P has been certified as lacking capacity to renew consent to storage of the gametes, and K has not subsequently been informed in writing, before the start of the renewal period which relates to that consent period, that P has been certified as having capacity to renew consent to storage of the gametes. P renews consent by informing K in writing that P consents to the storage of the gametes. If P’s consent is not renewed under sub-paragraph (6) before the end of the consent period, K must, as soon as possible after the end of that period, give a notice to P stating that if P does not renew consent before the end of the renewal period, the gametes will be removed from storage and disposed of. P’s consent to the storage of the gametes is to be taken as having been withdrawn at the end of a renewal period that relates to a consent period if— K has complied with the requirements of sub-paragraphs (2) and (7) in relation to that consent period, and P’s consent is not renewed under sub-paragraph (6) before the end of the renewal period. But this is subject to sub-paragraphs (9) and (10). If, in a case referred to in sub-paragraph (8)(a) and (b), P dies before the end of the renewal period— P’s consent is not to be taken as withdrawn under sub-paragraph (8), but if at the end of the period of 10 years beginning with the day on which P died there is still effective consent from P to the storage, P’s consent is to be taken as withdrawn at that time. If, in a case referred to in sub-paragraph (8)(a) and (b), before the end of the renewal period P is certified as lacking capacity to renew consent— if at the end of the period of 10 years beginning with the day on which P was so certified there is still effective consent from P to the storage, P’s consent is to be taken as withdrawn at that time. But P’s consent is not to be taken as withdrawn under sub-paragraph (10)(b) if, before the time it would be taken to be withdrawn under that sub-paragraph— P is certified as having capacity to renew consent to storage of the gametes, and P renews consent to storage of the gametes by informing K in writing that P consents to their storage. In a case where P renews consent under sub-paragraph (11)(b), this paragraph applies subsequently as if references to a consent period were to— the period of 10 years beginning with the day on which P so renewed consent, and each successive period of 10 years. For the purposes of paragraph 11A, each of the following is a “consent period”— the period of 10 years beginning with the relevant day, and In sub-paragraph (1)(a) “relevant day” means— the day on which the gametes are first placed in storage, or in a case where sub-paragraph (3) or (5) applies, the day on which P gives consent to the storage of the gametes. This sub-paragraph applies where the gametes are taken from or provided by P before P attains the age of 18 years and, at the time the gametes are first stored— P has not attained the age of 16 years and is not competent to deal with the issue of consent to storage of the gametes, or P has attained that age but, although not lacking capacity to consent to the storage of the gametes, is not competent to deal with the issue of consent to their storage. In relation to Scotland, sub-paragraph (3) is to be read as if, for paragraphs (a) and (b), there were substituted “P does not have capacity (within the meaning of section 2(4) of the Age of Legal Capacity (Scotland) Act 1991) to consent to storage of the gametes”. This sub-paragraph applies where the gametes are taken from or provided by P after P attains the age of 16 years and, at the time the gametes are first stored, P lacks capacity to consent to their storage. In paragraph 11A “the renewal period”, in relation to a consent period, means the period which— begins 12 months before the end of the consent period, and ends 6 months after the end of the consent period. In paragraph 11A “certified” means certified in writing by a registered medical practitioner. In paragraph 11A and this paragraph, in relation to Scotland, references to a person lacking or having capacity to consent or renew consent are to be read as references to the person being or not being incapable (within the meaning of section 1(6) of the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000) of consenting or renewing consent. an embryo, the creation of which was brought about in vitro, is in storage, the embryo is being kept for use for the purposes of providing treatment services to— a person (“P”) whose gametes or human cells were used to bring about the creation of the embryo, or P and another person together, P’s consent to the storage of the embryo is required under paragraph 8(2), and there is effective consent from P to the storage of the embryo. The person keeping the embryo in storage (“K”) must, in each consent period, request P to renew consent to storage of the embryo within the renewal period. For the meaning of “consent period” and “renewal period”, see paragraph 11D. The duty in sub-paragraph (2) ceases to apply if— K is notified that P has died, or K is notified under paragraph 4A(1)(c) of the withdrawal of a person’s consent to storage of the embryo. K has at any time been informed in writing that P has been certified as lacking capacity to renew consent to storage of the embryo, and K has not subsequently been informed in writing, before the start of the renewal period which relates to that consent period, that P has been certified as having capacity to renew consent to storage of the embryo. P renews consent by informing K in writing that P consents to the storage of the embryo. If P’s consent is not renewed under sub-paragraph (6) before the end of the consent period, K must, as soon as possible after the end of that period, give a notice to P stating that if P does not renew consent before the end of the renewal period, the embryo will be removed from storage and disposed of. P’s consent to the storage of the embryo is to be taken as having been withdrawn at the end of a renewal period that relates to a consent period if— P is certified as having capacity to renew consent to storage of the embryo, and P renews consent to storage of the embryo by informing K in writing that P consents to its storage. In a case where P has renewed consent under sub-paragraph (11)(b), this paragraph applies subsequently as if references to the consent period were to— Where P’s consent is taken as withdrawn under this paragraph, K must, as soon as possible, take all reasonable steps to give notice of the withdrawal to each person whose gametes or human cells were used to bring about its creation. Storage of the embryo remains lawful until— the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the day on which P’s consent is taken as withdrawn under this paragraph, or if, before the end of that period, K receives a notice from each person notified under sub-paragraph (13) stating that the person consents to the disposal of the embryo, the time at which the last of those notices was received. For the purposes of paragraph 11C, each of the following is a “consent period”— the period of 10 years beginning with the day on which the embryo is first placed in storage, and In paragraph 11C “the renewal period”, in relation to a consent period, means the period which— In paragraph 11C “certified” means certified in writing by a registered medical practitioner. In paragraph 11C, in relation to Scotland, references to a person lacking or having capacity to renew consent are to be read as references to the person being or not being incapable (within the meaning of section 1(6) of the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000) of renewing consent. In this Part of this Schedule— “the commencement day” means 1 July 2022; “the transitional period” means the period beginning with the commencement day and ending with 30 June 2024. “the 1990 Act” means the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990; “the 2009 Regulations” means the Human Fertilisation and Embryology (Statutory Storage Period for Embryos and Gametes) Regulations 2009 (S.I. 2009/1582); “the 2020 Regulations” means the Human Fertilisation and Embryology (Statutory Storage Period for Embryos and Gametes) (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/566). “gamete storage licence” means a licence under Schedule 2 to the 1990 Act that authorises the storage of gametes; “embryo storage licence” means a licence under Schedule 2 to the 1990 Act that authorises the storage of embryos; “storage licence” means a licence under Schedule 2 to the 1990 Act that authorises the storage of gametes, embryos or human admixed embryos; “pre-commencement”, in relation to a storage licence, or a storage licence of any description, means granted before the commencement day and “post-commencement” means granted on or after that day. “statutory storage period” has the same meaning as in the 1990 Act immediately before the commencement day; references to gametes, embryos and human admixed embryos have the same meaning as in that Act; “the training purpose”, “the research purpose” and “treatment purposes” have the same meanings as in section 14(3)(c) of that Act. The amendments in paragraphs 2 to 6 of this Schedule have effect in relation to pre-commencement storage licences under which gametes, embryos or human admixed embryos are kept in storage on or after the commencement day (as well as having effect in relation to post-commencement storage licences). This is subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3). In the case of a pre-commencement embryo storage licence, the condition imposed by section 14(3)(c) of the 1990 Act (as substituted by paragraph 2 of this Schedule) does not apply in relation to an embryo which, on the commencement day, is kept in storage for the training or research purpose but not for treatment purposes. In the case of any pre-commencement storage licence, the condition imposed by section 14(1)(ca) of the 1990 Act (as substituted by paragraph 5 of this Schedule) applies only in relation to times on or after the commencement day. The amendments made by paragraph 7 of this Schedule have effect in relation to the storage of gametes and embryos under a pre-commencement gamete or embryo storage licence, where the gametes or embryos are kept in storage on or after the commencement day (as well as having effect in relation to the storage of gametes and embryos under a post-commencement gamete or embryo storage licence). This paragraph applies if the person storing gametes or an embyro under a pre-commencement gamete or embryo storage licence— has, before the end of the transitional period, taken all reasonable steps to establish the date on which the gametes were or embryo was first placed in storage, but is unable to establish that date. The person may give a notice to each person whose consent to the storage is required under Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act specifying a date on which the gametes are or embryo is to be regarded as having been first placed in storage. Where notice is given under sub-paragraph (2), the gametes are or embryo is to be regarded, for all purposes of the 1990 Act and this Part of this Schedule, as having been first placed in storage on the date specified in the notice. For the purposes of section 14(3)(a) of the 1990 Act (as substituted by paragraph 2 of this Schedule), a pre-commencement gamete storage licence under which, on and after the commencement day, gametes are kept in storage is to be regarded as specifying the period of 55 years beginning with the day on which the gametes were first placed in storage. For the purposes of section 14(3)(b) of the 1990 Act (as substituted by paragraph 2 of this Schedule), a pre-commencement embryo storage licence under which, on and after the commencement day, an embryo is kept in storage for treatment purposes is to be regarded as specifying for those purposes the period of 55 years beginning with the day on which the embryo was first so kept. If a pre-commencement consent to the storage of gametes or an embryo expires at any time in the transitional period, the storage of the gametes or embryo for the remainder of that period is not unlawful merely because of that fact. In sub-paragraph (1)— “pre-commencement consent” means consent given under Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act before the commencement day; the reference to expiry of consent does not include withdrawal. This paragraph applies in relation to the storage of gametes or an embryo under a pre-commencement gamete or embryo storage licence where, immediately before the commencement day, there is no effective consent to the storage by a relevant person. The person keeping the gametes or embryo in storage must request the relevant person to give consent to the storage under Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act. A request under sub-paragraph (2) must be given before 1 July 2023 in writing. The storage of the gametes or embryo at any time before the end of the transitional period is not unlawful merely because there is no effective consent to the storage by the relevant person. “effective consent” means consent under Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act which has not been withdrawn; “relevant person” means a person whose consent is required under Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act to storage of the gametes or embryo. This paragraph applies in relation to the storage of gametes under a pre-commencement gamete storage licence where the statutory storage period applicable immediately before the commencement day was provided for by— regulation 4, 4A, 7 or 8 of the 2009 Regulations, or regulation 4 of the 2020 Regulations. For the purposes of paragraph 11A of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act (as inserted by paragraph 7 of this Schedule), paragraph 11B(1)(a) of that Schedule has effect as if the reference to the period of 10 years beginning with the relevant day were a reference to the period which— begins with the relevant day, and ends at the end of the statutory storage period referred to in sub-paragraph (1). This paragraph applies in relation to the storage of an embryo under a pre-commencement embryo storage licence where the statutory storage period applicable immediately before the commencement day was provided for by— regulation 3, 3A, 5 or 6 of the 2009 Regulations, or regulation 3 of the 2020 Regulations. For the purposes of paragraph 11C of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act (as inserted by paragraph 7 of this Schedule), paragraph 11D(1)(a) of that Schedule has effect as if the reference to the period of 10 years beginning with the day on which the embryo was first placed in storage were a reference to the period which— begins with the day on which the embryo was first so placed, and This paragraph applies in relation to the storage of gametes under a pre-commencement gamete storage licence in a case where— paragraph 11A of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act applies in relation to the storage, and for the purposes of that paragraph, the first consent period (see paragraph 11B(1)(a) of that Schedule) ends in the transitional period. Where this paragraph applies, paragraph 11A of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act has effect in relation to that first consent period as if— for sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) there were substituted— The person keeping the gametes in storage (“K”) must request P to renew consent to storage of the gametes before 1 July 2024. A request under sub-paragraph (2) must— be given in writing before 1 July 2023; state that if P does not renew consent before 1 July 2024, the gametes will be removed from storage and disposed of. in sub-paragraph (5)(b), for “the start of the renewal period which relates to that consent period” there were substituted “1 July 2023”; sub-paragraph (7) were omitted; for sub-paragraph (8) there were substituted— P’s consent to the storage of the gametes is to be taken as having been withdrawn at the beginning of 1 July 2024 if— K has complied with sub-paragraph (2), and P’s consent is not renewed under sub-paragraph (6) before 1 July 2024. in sub-paragraphs (9) and (10), references to the end of the renewal period were to 1 July 2024. This paragraph applies in relation to the storage of an embryo under a pre-commencement embryo storage licence in a case where— paragraph 11C of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act applies in relation to the storage, and for the purposes of that paragraph, the first consent period (see paragraph 11D(1)(a) of that Schedule) ends in the transitional period. Where this paragraph applies, paragraph 11C of Schedule 3 to the 1990 Act has effect in relation to that first consent period as if— The person keeping the embryo in storage (“K”) must request P to renew consent to storage of the embryo before 1 July 2024. state that if P does not renew consent before 1 July 2024, the embryo will be removed from storage and disposed of. P’s consent to the storage of the embryo is to be taken as having been withdrawn at the beginning of 1 July 2024 if— After section 321 of the Communications Act 2003 insert— OFCOM must set standards by virtue of section 321(1)(b) prohibiting television programme services provided between 5.30 am and 9.00 pm from including advertisements for an identifiable less healthy food or drink product, except as provided for by subsection (3). OFCOM must ensure that the prohibition provided for by the first standards set by virtue of subsection (1) takes effect from the beginning of 1 January 2023.

The Secretary of State may, before the date specified in subsection (2), amend that subsection so as to substitute a later date for the date that is for the time being specified there. The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this section to change the meaning of “the relevant guidance”. Before making regulations under subsection (3)(b) or (7), the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. A statutory instrument containing regulations under subsection (7) may not be made unless a draft of the instrument has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament. After section 368F of the Communications Act 2003 insert— From the beginning of 1 January 2023, on-demand programme services must not, between 5.30 am and 9.00 pm, include advertisements for an identifiable less healthy food or drink product. The prohibition imposed by subsection (1) does not apply in relation to advertisements included in on-demand programme services as a result of arrangements made by or on behalf of a person who is, at the time when the arrangements are made, a food or drink SME. The Secretary of State may by regulations provide for further exemptions from the prohibition imposed by subsection (1). “advertisements” includes advertisements and sponsorship announcements (within the meaning given by section 368G(17)) under a sponsorship agreement; “the relevant guidance” means the guidance entitled “Nutrient Profiling Technical Guidance” published by the Department of Health on 1 January 2011; The Secretary of State may, before the date specified in subsection (1), amend that subsection so as to substitute a later date for the date that is for the time being specified there. Before making regulations under subsection (3) or (7), the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. In the Communications Act 2003, after Part 4B insert— From the beginning of 1 January 2023, a person must not pay for advertisements for an identifiable less healthy food or drink product to be placed on the internet. Subsection (1) does not apply where the person paying is, at the time when the payment is made, a food or drink SME. Subsection (1) does not apply— in relation to advertisements which are directed solely at persons who are engaged in, or employed by, a business which involves or is associated with the manufacture or sale of food or drink, in relation to advertisements included in on-demand programme services (as to which, see section 368FA), in relation to advertisements included in services connected to regulated radio services, or in relation to advertisements which are not intended to be accessed principally by persons in any part of the United Kingdom. paying includes providing any consideration (monetary or non-monetary); “placed” includes continues to be placed; paying for advertisements to be placed on the internet includes paying under a sponsorship agreement as result of which advertisements are placed on the internet; “food or drink SME” means a small or medium enterprise, within the meaning given by regulations made by the Secretary of State, of a description specified in the regulations; “services connected to regulated radio services” has the meaning given by regulations made by the Secretary of State.

The Secretary of State may, before the date specified in subsection (1)— amend that subsection so as to substitute a later date for the date that is for the time being specified there, and make corresponding amendments to the references to that date in subsections (11) and (12). Before making regulations under subsection (4) or (8), the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. A statutory instrument containing regulations under subsection (8) may not be made unless a draft of the instrument has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament. A person is to be treated as having contravened subsection (1) if— at any time on or after 1 August 2021 but before 1 January 2023, the person made a payment for advertisements to be placed on the internet on or after 1 January 2023, and if the payment had been made on 1 January 2023, the person would have contravened subsection (1). Subsection (11) does not apply if the person— has put in place arrangements to ensure that they are entitled to require that the advertisements are not placed on the internet on or after 1 January 2023, and uses all reasonable endeavours to ensure that the advertisements are not so placed. Where the appropriate regulatory authority determine that a person is contravening or has contravened section 368Z14 they may do one or both of the following— give the person an enforcement notification; impose a financial penalty on the person in accordance with section 368Z16. The appropriate regulatory authority must not make a determination as mentioned in subsection (1) unless— there are reasonable grounds for believing that a contravention of section 368Z14 is occurring or has occurred, and they have allowed the person an opportunity to make representations about that apparent contravention. An enforcement notification is a notification which— specifies the determination made as mentioned in subsection (1), imposes requirements on the person to take such steps for complying with section 368Z14 and for remedying the consequences of the contravention as may be specified in the notification, fixes a reasonable period for the taking of those steps, and sets out the reasons for the appropriate regulatory authority’s decision to give the enforcement notification. The requirements specified in an enforcement notification may include requirements to do one or more of the following— instruct or request specified persons to remove specified advertisements from the internet; arrange for specified advertisements to be modified in specified ways. A person to whom an enforcement notification is given must comply with it. The duty under subsection (5) is enforceable in civil proceedings by the appropriate regulatory authority— for an injunction, for specific performance of a statutory duty under section 45 of the Court of Session Act 1988, or for any other appropriate remedy or relief. If a person to whom an enforcement notification has been given does not comply with it, the appropriate regulatory authority may impose a financial penalty on that person in accordance with section 368Z16. The amount of a penalty imposed on a person under section 368Z15 is to be such amount not exceeding the maximum penalty as the appropriate regulatory authority determine to be— appropriate, and proportionate to the contravention in respect of which it is imposed. The maximum penalty is— in a case in which the person carries on a relevant business, an amount not exceeding the greater of— 5% of the turnover of the person’s relevant business for the relevant period, and £250,000; in any other case, £250,000. a person’s “relevant business” is so much of any business carried on by the person as involves or is associated with the manufacture or sale of less healthy food or drink products; “relevant period”, in relation to a person’s relevant business, means— except in a case falling within sub-paragraph (ii) or (iii), the period of one year ending with the 31 March before the time at which the penalty is imposed; in the case of a person who at the time at which the penalty is imposed has been carrying on that business for a period of less than a year, the period, ending with that time, during which the person has been carrying it on; in the case of a person who at the time at which the penalty is imposed has ceased to carry on that business, the period of one year ending with the time when the person ceased to carry it on; the amount of the turnover of a person’s relevant business for the relevant period is to be calculated by the appropriate regulatory authority in accordance with the following sub-paragraphs— the amount is to be calculated in conformity with accounting practices and principles which are generally accepted in the United Kingdom; the amount is limited to the amounts derived by the person from the relevant business after deduction of sales rebates, value added tax and other taxes directly related to turnover; where the person’s relevant business consists of two or more undertakings that each prepare accounts, the amount is to be calculated by adding together the turnover of each, save that no account is to be taken of any turnover resulting from the supply of goods or the provision of services between them. In determining the amount of a penalty under subsection (1) the appropriate regulatory authority must have regard to any statement published by OFCOM under section 392 (guidelines to be followed in determining amount of penalties). A financial penalty imposed under this section, if not paid within the period fixed by the appropriate regulatory authority, is to be recoverable by the appropriate regulatory authority as a debt due to them from the person obliged to pay it. Where a financial penalty is imposed under this section in respect of matters appearing to OFCOM to have a connection with Northern Ireland and no connection with the rest of the United Kingdom, the penalty must be paid into the Consolidated Fund of Northern Ireland. In any other case, a financial penalty imposed under this section is to be paid into the Consolidated Fund of the United Kingdom. The appropriate regulatory authority may give a person a notice demanding information that the authority require for the purpose of carrying out their functions under this Part. The notice may relate to any information that the person appears to have or be able to generate. A notice under this section must— describe the required information, fix a reasonable period within which the information is to be provided, and set out the appropriate regulatory authority’s reasons for requiring it.

A notice under this section may specify the manner in which the information is to be provided. The appropriate regulatory authority may not require the provision of information under this section unless they have given the person from whom it is required an opportunity of making representations to them about the matters appearing to them to provide grounds for making the request. Section 368Z15 applies in relation to a failure to comply with a demand for information imposed under this section as if that failure were a contravention of section 368Z14. In this section “information” includes copies of advertisements. The appropriate regulatory authority must draw up and, from time to time, review and revise, guidance setting out their intentions concerning the exercise of their functions under this Part. The appropriate regulatory authority must consult the Secretary of State before drawing up or revising the guidance. The appropriate regulatory authority must publish the guidance and any revised guidance in such manner as they consider appropriate for bringing it to the attention of the persons who, in their opinion, are likely to be affected by it. OFCOM may designate any body corporate to be, to the extent provided by the designation, the appropriate regulatory authority for the purposes of any provision of this Part, subject to subsection (9). To the extent that no body is designated for a purpose, OFCOM is the appropriate regulatory authority for that purpose. Where a body is designated for a purpose, OFCOM may act as the appropriate regulatory authority for that purpose concurrently with or in place of that body. OFCOM may provide a designated body with assistance (including financial assistance) in connection with any of the functions of the body under this Part. A designation may in particular— provide for a body to be the appropriate regulatory authority in relation to advertisements of a specified description; provide that a function of the appropriate regulatory authority is exercisable by the designated body— to such extent as may be specified; either generally or in such circumstances as may be specified; either unconditionally or subject to such conditions as may be specified. The conditions that may be specified pursuant to subsection (5)(b)(iii) include a condition to the effect that a function may, generally or in specified circumstances, be exercised by the body only with the agreement of OFCOM. A designation has effect for such period as may be specified and may be revoked by OFCOM at any time. OFCOM must publish any designation in such manner as they consider appropriate for bringing it to the attention of persons who, in their opinion, are likely to be affected by it. OFCOM may not designate a body unless, as respects that designation, they are satisfied that the body— is a fit and proper body to be designated, has consented to being designated, has access to financial resources that are adequate to ensure the effective performance of its functions as the appropriate regulatory authority (taking into account any financial assistance that OFCOM intends to provide under subsection (4)), is sufficiently independent of persons who carry on business that involves or is associated with the manufacture or sale of less healthy food or drink products, and will, in performing any function to which the designation relates, have regard in all cases— to the principles under which regulatory activities should be transparent, accountable, proportionate, consistent and targeted only at cases in which action is needed, and to such of the matters mentioned in section 3(4) as appear to the body to be relevant in the circumstances. Subject to any enactment or rule of law restricting the disclosure or use of information by OFCOM or by a designated body— a designated body may provide information to another designated body for use by that other body in connection with any of its functions as the appropriate regulatory authority; a designated body may provide information to OFCOM for use by OFCOM in connection with any of their functions under this Part; OFCOM may provide information to a designated body for use by that body in connection with any of its functions as the appropriate regulatory authority. In carrying out their functions as the appropriate regulatory authority, a designated body may carry out, commission or support (financially or otherwise) research. “designation” means a designation under this section and cognate expressions are to be construed accordingly; “specified” means specified in a designation. The Secretary of State may by regulations amend this Part for the purpose of prohibiting persons from doing either or both of the following (so far as not already prohibited)— placing on the internet advertisements for an identifiable less healthy food or drink product; making arrangements for advertisements for an identifiable less healthy food or drink product to be placed on the internet. For the purposes of subsection (1)— “placing” includes leaving in place; “placed” includes continues to be placed. The provision which may be made by regulations under subsection (1) by virtue of section 402(3)(c) includes provision repealing, revoking or amending provision made by or under any of the following whenever passed or made— Before making regulations under subsection (1), the Secretary of State must consult such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate. A statutory instrument containing regulations under subsection (1) may not be made unless a draft of the instrument has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament. “appropriate regulatory authority” is to be construed in accordance with section 368Z19; “less healthy”, in relation to a food or drink product, has the meaning given by section 368Z14(5)(e). The Communications Act 2003 is amended as follows. In section 368C (on-demand programme services: duties of the appropriate regulatory authority), after subsection (5) insert— The appropriate regulatory authority must draw up and, from time to time, review and revise, guidance setting out their intentions concerning the exercise of their functions under this Part in relation to the prohibition imposed by section 368FA (advertising: less healthy food and drink). The appropriate regulatory authority must consult the Secretary of State before drawing up or revising guidance under subsection (6). In section 402(2) (instruments subject to negative procedure) — in paragraph (a) omit “or regulations under section 368BC”; regulations under— section 321A(7) (see subsection (9) of that section), section 368BC (see subsection (7) of that section), section 368FA(7) (see subsection (9) of that section), section 368Z14(8) (see subsection (10) of that section), or section 368Z20 (see subsection (5) of that section), This Schedule is about the provision that may be made by regulations under section 180. require a local authority not to grant a licence unless satisfied as to a matter specified in the regulations; require a local authority to have regard, in deciding whether to grant a licence, to a matter specified in the regulations.

The regulations may confer power on a local authority to impose a financial penalty in relation to— the breach of a condition attached to a licence. If the regulations confer power to impose a financial penalty in respect of conduct for which a criminal offence is created under the regulations, they must provide that a person is not liable to such a penalty in respect of conduct for which the person has been convicted of the offence. If the regulations confer power to impose a financial penalty they must include provision— requiring the local authority, before imposing a financial penalty on a person, to give the person written notice (a “notice of intent”) of the proposed financial penalty; requiring the local authority, after the period for making representations, to decide whether to impose the financial penalty; requiring the local authority, if it decides to impose the financial penalty, to give the person notice in writing (a “final notice”) imposing the penalty; The provision that may be made by the regulations by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) includes provision— requiring the local authority to withdraw a final notice in circumstances specified in the regulations; The regulations may confer on a local authority the function of enforcing the regulations in its area.
