The Education (European University Institute) (Wales) Regulations 2014

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations provide for support for one eligible student taking a designated higher education course at the European University Institute.

Grants for living and other costs, a disabled student’s allowance and a grant for dependants are available for the eligible student.

These Regulations set out the eligibility criteria for the grants, the application procedure and the method for calculating the amount of grant payable. The Regulations also set out the arrangements for payment of the grants and recovery of any overpayments.

These Regulations revoke the Assembly Learning Grants (European University Institute) (Wales) Regulations 2009 and the Assembly Learning Grants (European University Institute) (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2010.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
