The Health Authorities Act 1995 (Rectification of Transitional Arrangements) Order 2000
This Order is made under section 44 of the Health Act 1999. It amends the Health Authorities Act 1995 (Transitional Provisions) Order 1996 so as to rectify certain defects in that Order with retrospective effect. The effect of this is that where one Health Authority (“the acting Health Authority”) acted in relation to practitioners providing services under Part II of the National Health Service Act 1977 (“Part II practitioners”), where another Health Authority (“the proper Health Authority”) should have acted, the proper Health Authority will be treated as though it had been the acting one.
