These regulations would be subject to the affirmative procedure, and would enable the Secretary of State to provide for additional functions to be carried out by the NHS Commissioning Board if this were beneficial for the effective operation of the health service. A function may only be conferred on the NHS Commissioning Board if it is connected to another function of the NHS Commissioning Board.
