EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations, which come into force on 1st September 2001, further amend the Education (Mandatory Awards) Regulations 2001 ("the Mandatory Awards Regulations").

Regulation 3 corrects a drafting error.

Paragraph 14 of Schedule 2 to the Mandatory Awards Regulations has been modified with the effect that where a child's income exceeds by £950 or more the relevant sum specified in paragraph 13(4)(a) or (b), that child can, notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 12(3), be treated as a dependent child (regulation 5). Such a child's income, less the sum of £950, will be offset against the amount payable to the student in relation to childcare costs (regulation 6).
