Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Scottish Office
St Andrew's House, Edinburgh

4th July 1988

These Regulations further amend the St Mary's Music School (Aided Places) Regulations 1986 ("the principal Regulations") to uprate the qualifying income levels for the remission of fees and charges and making of grants and in certain other respects.

The level of income at or below which fees are to be wholly remitted is increased from £6,002 to £6,248 for boarders and from £7,539 to £7,849 for day pupils, with corresponding increases in the extent of remission where the relevant income exceeds these sums (regulations 3 and 4).

Remission of one half of charges for meals where parents' income does not exceed £5,917 is removed; the whole of such charges are to be remitted where parents are in receipt of income support (regulation 5).

The qualifying income levels for school travel grants and clothing grants are uprated (regulations 6 to 7).

References to the relevant income tax legislation in Schedule 1 to the principal Regulations are updated, so as to discount deductions from total income of increased personal reliefs for those aged 80 or over and contributions to personal pension schemes (regulation 8).
