Cross-Border Placements Regulations: business and regulatory impact assessment
Business and regulatory impact assessment (BRIA) for the Children’s Hearings (Scotland) Act 2011 (Effect of Deprivation of Liberty Orders) Regulations 2022
16. Implementation and delivery plan
The Scottish Government will work with the UK and Welsh Governments and the Northern Ireland Executive to monitor the effectiveness of the administrative agreements that support the Regulations, including an annual review of the proposed Memorandum of Understanding which we intend to conclude between all parties.
16.1 Post-implementation review
We will work closely with stakeholders, including the Care Inspectorate and Scottish Local Authorities, to determine how well the Regulations are working in practice and what changes, if any, need to be made to the associated accompanying administrative agreements.
As set out earlier in this paper, the Regulations are an interim step, necessary to better regulate cross-border placements of children and young people on DOL orders into Scottish residential care. We are now consulting upon longer-term solutions for cross-border placements more broadly, as part of the Children's Care and Justice (Scotland) Bill.[7]
