This will have the effect of bringing these establishments and agencies within the regulatory framework of the Care Standards Act 2000, to be enforced in Wales by the National Assembly for Wales.

Further provisions relate to the coming into force of certain provisions of Part VIII of the Care Standards Act 2000 whose effect is to amend Part XII of the Children Act 1989 ("the 1989 Act") on 1st February 2003. The effect of the amendments is to broaden the duty to monitor the welfare of children who board to all schools and colleges of further education which provide accommodation for children.
