These Regulations which apply to England amend the National Health Service (Travel Expenses and Remission of Charges) Regulations 2003 ("the Travel Expenses and Remission of Charges Regulations").
Regulation 2 updates the reference to the publication which describes additional loans paid under the Education (Student Loans) (Scotland) Regulations 2007. These loans are disregarded in the calculation of a student´s loan income when a person´s entitlement to the payment of NHS travel expenses and the remission of NHS charges is being established under the Travel Expenses and Remission of Charges Regulations.
