Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Vocational Training (Public Financial Assistance and Disentitlement to Tax Relief) Regulations 1992 (S.I. 1992/734) (“the principal Regulations”).

The principal Regulations specify the types of public financial assistance that preclude the giving of tax relief under section 32 of the Finance Act 1991 for payments in respect of qualifying courses of vocational training.

These Regulations update the principal Regulations by adding new types of public financial assistance, extending existing types to cover locally named schemes within the same type, and removing a type (Training Credits Scheme) that has been replaced.
