These Regulations amend the NHS Bodies and Local Authorities Partnership Arrangements Regulations 2000 (“the 2000 Regulations”). The 2000 Regulations make provision for certain NHS bodies and local authorities to enter into partnership arrangements under section 75 of the National Health Service Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”). Those arrangements include the establishment of funds made up of contributions by one or more NHS bodies and one or more local authorities (“pooled funds”).
