The National Health Service (Disapplication of NHS England’s Powers of Direction) (England) Regulations 2023
Section 13YB(1) of the National Health Service Act 2006 (c. 41) (“the 2006 Act”) gives NHS England the power to provide, by direction, for any of its relevant functions to be exercised by one or more integrated care boards. Section 13YB(3) allows Regulations to be made to limit the application of this power, and this instrument disapplies that power in respect of specified functions of NHS England relating to NHS Continuing Healthcare (“NHS CHC”) and NHS funded nursing care (“NHS FNC”).
