“income of the student’s parent” means the taxable income of the parent from all sources computed as for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts or as for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State of the European Community which applies to the parent’s income, or where the legislation of more than one member State applies in respect of the same period, as for the purposes of the legislation pursuant to which the Secretary of State considers that the parent will pay the largest amount of tax in that period, except as otherwise provided by paragraph 5 or 6;
“residual income” means, subject to sub-paragraph (2), the balance of gross income remaining in any year after the deductions specified in paragraph 6 have been made.

(3) Where the eligible student’s parent satisfies the Secretary of State that his income is wholly or mainly derived from the profits of a business or profession carried on by him, then, if the Secretary of State and the parent so agree, any reference in this Part of this Schedule to a financial year shall be construed as a reference to a year ending with such date as appears to the Secretary of State expedient having regard to the accounts kept in respect of that business or profession and the periods covered thereby.
(4) Where a parent is in receipt of any income which does not form part of his taxable income by reason only that—

(c)the income arises from an office, service or employment, income from which is exempt from tax in pursuance of any legislation,
his income for the purposes of this Part of the Schedule shall be computed as though the income first mentioned in this sub-paragraph were part of his taxable income.
(5) Where the income of the eligible student’s parent is computed as for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State—
(a)it shall be computed in the currency of that member State,
(b)the value of any deduction mentioned in paragraph 6(2) shall be the amount of that currency required to purchase the sterling value of the deduction, and

(6) The rate applied in determining the sterling value of another currency under sub-paragraph (5) shall be the rate for the month in which the last day of the financial year in question falls published by the Office for National Statistics in “Financial Statistics”.
3.—(1) A parental contribution ascertained in accordance with this Part shall be applicable in the case of every eligible student except where—

(i)a state authority or agency, national, regional or local,

(iii)any person who is not the student’s parent
throughout any three month period ending on a date on or after the date on which he attains the age of 16 and before the first day of his course; provided that he has not at any time from the beginning of the three month period to the first day of his course in fact been under the charge or control of his parents;
(h)his parents are residing outside the European Community and the Secretary of State is satisfied either that—
(i)the assessment of a parental contribution would place those parents in jeopardy; or
(ii)it would not be reasonably practicable for those parents to send any such contribution to the United Kingdom;
(i)paragraph 5(7) applies and the parent whom the Secretary of State considered the more appropriate for the purposes of that sub-paragraph has died;
(j)he is a member of a religious order who resides in a house of his order.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) an eligible student shall be treated as having supported himself out of his earnings for any period or periods for which—

(3) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(f) an eligible student shall be regarded as irreconcilably estranged from his parents if, but not only if, he has communicated with neither of them for the period of one year before the beginning of the year for which payments in pursuance of his support fall to be made.
4.—(1) The parental contribution shall subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) be in any case in which the residual income is £20,480 or more £45 with the addition of £1 for every complete £9.50 by which it exceeds £20,480, reduced in each case in respect of each child of the parent (other than the student) who is wholly or mainly financially dependent on him on the first day of the year for which the contribution falls to be ascertained, by £81; and in any case in which the residual income is less than £20,480 the parental contribution shall be nil.

(3) For any year in which a statutory award is held by—

the parental contribution for the eligible student shall be such proportion of any contribution ascertained in accordance with this Part as the Secretary of State (after consultation with any other authority involved) considers just; provided that where a contribution is ascertained in respect of more than one child of the parent the aggregate amount of the contributions in respect of each shall not exceed the amount of the contribution that would be ascertained if only one child held an award or, if that amount is different in respect of each child, the lower or (as the case may be) lowest such amount.
5.—(1) For the purposes of this paragraph “preceding financial year” means the financial year preceding the academic year in respect of which the resources of the eligible student fall to be assessed and “current financial year” means the financial year which includes the first day of the academic year; provided that where references to a financial year fall to be construed in accordance with paragraph 2(3) as references to a year ending less than five months before the beginning of an academic year of the eligible student’s course, “preceding financial year” shall mean the financial year last ending five or more months before the academic year in respect of which the resources of the eligible student fall to be assessed and “current financial year” shall mean the financial year ending within those five months.
(2) Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, “gross income” means the income of the student’s parent in the preceding financial year or, for the purpose of calculating residual income under paragraph 2(2), in the financial year there mentioned.
(3) Where the Secretary of State is satisfied that the sterling value of the income of the student’s parent in the current financial year is likely to be not more than 85 per cent. of the sterling value of his income for the preceding financial year, she may for the purpose of calculating the parental contribution ascertain the gross income by reference to the current financial year; and in such case sub-paragraph (2) shall have effect, in relation to the academic year in respect of which the eligible student’s resources fall to be assessed and, if the Secretary of State so determines, any subsequent year, as if the reference therein to the preceding financial year were a reference to the current financial year.
(4) Where—
(a)one of the eligible student’s parents dies either before or during the year in respect of which the resources of the student fall to be ascertained (“the relevant year”); and
(b)that parent’s income has been or would be taken into account for the purpose of determining the parental contribution,
the parental contribution shall—
(c)where the parent dies before the relevant year, be determined by reference to the income of the surviving parent; or
(d)where the parent dies during the relevant year, be the aggregate of—
(i)the appropriate proportion of the contribution determined by reference to the income of both parents, that is to say such proportion thereof as the part of the relevant year during which both parents were alive bears to the full year; and
(ii)the appropriate proportion of the contribution determined by reference to the income of the surviving parent, that is to say such proportion thereof as the part of the relevant year remaining after the parent dies bears to the full year.
(5) Without prejudice to sub-paragraph (6), where, in pursuance of any trust deed or other instrument or by virtue of any applicable legislation any income is applied by any person for or towards the maintenance, education or other benefit of the eligible student or of any person dependent on the student’s parent, or payments made to his parent are required to be so applied, that income, or those payments, shall be treated as part of the gross income of the parent.
(6) Where any such benefit as is mentioned in paragraph 1 (1)(b) of Part I of this Schedule is provided, by reason of the parent’s employment, for any member of his family or household who is an eligible student (whether the student or some other such member) then that benefit shall not be treated as part of the gross income of the parent.
(7) Where the parents do not ordinarily live together throughout the year in respect of which the resources of the eligible student fall to be ascertained (“the relevant year”), the parental contribution shall be determined by reference to the income of whichever parent the Secretary of State considers the more appropriate in the circumstances.
(8) Where the parents do not ordinarily live together for part only of the relevant year, the parental contribution shall be the aggregate of—
(a)the appropriate proportion of the contribution determined as provided in sub-paragraph (7), that is to say such proportion thereof as the part of the relevant year for which the parents do not so live together bears to the full year; and
(b)the appropriate proportion of the contribution determined without regard to this sub-paragraph, that is to say, such proportion thereof as the part of the relevant year for which the parents so live together bears to the full year.
(9) Where one of the eligible student’s parents is his step-parent the parental contribution shall be ascertained by reference only to the income of the other parent.
6.—(1) For the purposes of determining the income of a student’s parent (and, accordingly, the parent’s gross income), in computing his taxable income as for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts or for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State of the European Community any deductions which fall to be made or exemptions which are permitted—
(a)by way of personal reliefs provided for in Chapter I of Part VII of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988(17), or where the parent’s income is computed as for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State, any comparable personal reliefs;
(b)in respect of any payment made by the parent under covenant;
(c)in pursuance of any legislation or rule of law with the effect that payments which for the purposes of the law of the United Kingdom are treated as income are not treated as income; or
(d)without prejudice as aforesaid, of a kind mentioned in sub-paragraph (2),
shall not be made or permitted.
(2) For the purpose of determining a parent’s residual income there shall be deducted from his gross income—
(a)in respect of any person, other than a spouse, child or eligible student, wholly or mainly financially dependent on the parent during the year for which the contribution falls to be ascertained, the amount by which £2,360 exceeds the income of that person in that year;
(b)the gross amount of any premium or sum relating to a pension (not being a premium payable under a policy of life insurance) in respect of which relief is given under section 266, 273, 619 or 639 of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988, or where the parent’s income is computed as for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State, the gross amount of any such premium in respect of which relief would be given if that legislation made provision equivalent to the Income Tax Acts;
(c)where the parents ordinarily live together and one of them is incapacitated, or where the parent ordinarily lives with a person who is not the other parent of the eligible student, but that person is the husband or wife of the parent or lives with the parent as the parent’s husband or wife, and one of them is incapacitated, so much of the cost in wages of domestic assistance as does not exceed £1,850, if the other parent or person described in this sub-paragraph is wholly or mainly financially dependent on the parent during the year for which the contribution falls to be ascertained;
(d)where the parent does not ordinarily live with the other parent or with another person as husband or wife or who is their husband or wife, and the parent is incapacitated, so much of the cost in wages of domestic assistance as does not exceed £1,850;

(h)where the parent’s income is computed as for the purposes of the income tax legislation of another member State, sums equivalent to any amounts which would not be treated as taxable income if that legislation made provision equivalent to the Income Tax Acts.
(3) In any case where income is computed as for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts by virtue of paragraph 2(4), there shall be deducted from the parent’s gross income sums equivalent to the deduction mentioned in sub-paragraph (2)(b), provided that any sums so deducted shall not exceed the deductions that would be made if the whole of the parent’s income were in fact taxable income for the purposes of the Income Tax Acts.

(a)every man student ordinarily living with his wife;
