These Regulations set out the categories of persons who are disqualified from registration in England as child minders or providers of day care. Persons disqualified under these Regulations may not act as childminders or provide day care. Nor may they be employed in connection with day care provision or directly concerned in the management of any provision of day care. The Regulations set out the circumstances in which disqualification may be waived either wholly or in part e.g. for the purposes of employment at a day care provider or direct involvement in management. The Regulations apply to applications for registration made under Part XA of the Children Act 1989. A right of appeal lies to the Care Standards Tribunal in relation to any determination made by the registration authority under these Regulations by virtue of Regulation 11. A Full Regulatory Impact Assessment, which sets out the background and reasons for these regulations, has been completed .

What Parliament said about it
Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.
How Parliament handled it
Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
