(This note is not part of the Regulation)
These Regulations amend the Education (Schools and Further and Higher Education) Regulations 1989 ("the 1989 Regulations") in relation to Wales.
Regulation 4 of the 1989 Regulations is amended to remove the reference to a grant maintained school (a category of school which no longer exists).
Regulation 8 is revoked so that there is no longer a requirement for the National Assembly for Wales to approve the provision of new premises involving building work or alterations to existing premises at a school, further or higher education institution or a hostel for pupils with special educational needs.
The revocation only removes the need for approval under the Regulations and not the need for any approval or consent under any other enactment.
Similar amendments were made for England by the Education (Schools and Further and Higher Education) (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/692).
