Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the Education Support Grants Regulations 1984 by substituting a new regulation 4 (rate of grant) and a new Schedule listing the purposes for or in connection with which grants are payable.

Under the new regulation 4, the rate of grant payable in respect of approved expenditure incurred before 1st April 1990 is 70 per cent. and on or after that date 60 per cent., subject to exceptions. The rate of grant for approved expenditure is 50 per cent. in the following cases: expenditure incurred on or after 1st April 1988 in respect of item 4(a) in the Schedule (records of achievement); expenditure incurred on or after 1st April 1989 in respect of items 2 and 3 (teaching mathematics in schools and teaching science andtechnology as part of primary education); expenditure incurred in England on or after 1st April 1989 but before 1st April 1990 in respect of item 12 (health education); expenditure in respect of item 18 (information technology) incurred on or after 1st April 1989 but before 1st April 1990 on computer hardware or on posts created on or after 1st April 1989 but before 1st April 1990. The rate of grant payable in respect of approved expenditure on item 34 (support for the WEA) is 70 per cent.

A new regulation 5(3) empowers the Secretary of State to make payments of half the grant applied for where estimated claims have been submitted for the final quarter, the other half being paid upon submission of a final claim for expenditure actually incurred.

Item 12 (formerly item 14) in the Schedule has been widened to cover health education generally, especially education to combat the abuse of drugs, alcohol and solvents, education about the risks associated with smoking, and education about AIDS. Item 23 (formerly item 25) in the Schedule has also been widened to cover the provision in schools of the basic curriculum. The old items 12 and 13 have now been deleted and the old item 31 is now subsumed under the new item 12. Six new items have been added as items 29 to 34.

The regulations also revoke the Education Support Grants (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 1988, which are superseded by these regulations.
