Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Education (Training Grants) Regulations 1987 (“the principal Regulations”).

Consequential amendments are made to other provisions in that regulation (regulation 3).

Secondly, regulation 12 of the principal Regulations is amended to enable the Secretary of State to withdraw or, after consulting the authority, vary conditions determined under that regulation (regulation 4).
