These regulations specify that giving adrenaline to a person who is reasonably suspected to be having an anaphylactic reaction counts as “emergency medical assistance” under section 5AAA of the Civil Liability Act 2002, so the legal treatment in Part 1CA of the Act applies. It affects anyone who administers adrenaline in that situation. Regulation 3 takes effect when section 6 of the Health, Safety and Civil Liability (Children in Schools and Child Care Services) Act 2011 commences (reg. 2(b)).
