The National Health Service (Pilot Schemes: Part II Practitioners) Regulations 1998
These Regulations specify the circumstances in which a doctor who performs personal medical services in connection with a pilot scheme under the National Health Service (Primary Care) Act 1997 may continue to have his name included in the medical list of a Health Authority or Health Board. They provide that such a doctor will be responsible for any act or omission of his which both gives rise to a breach of the pilot scheme and would, if the doctor had been providing general medical services, have constituted a breach of the terms of service contained in Schedule 2 to the National Health Service (General Medical Services) Regulations 1992 or (as the case may be) Schedule 1 to the National Health Service (General Medical Services) (Scotland) Regulations 1995. Such an act or omission is to be treated as if it were a breach of those terms of service.
