Regulation 5 makes transitional provisions which ensure that where CCG B has responsibility for providing a person with after-care services under regulation 14(1) and (2)(a) of the principal Regulations immediately before these Regulations come into force, responsibility continues to lie with CCG B until that person no longer requires after-care services or that person is detained under the provisions referred to in section 117(1) of the 1983 Act."
