(This note is not part of the Order)
These Regulations, which come into force on 1st August 2000, amend the Education (Student Loans) (Scotland) Regulations 2000 (“the principal Regulations”). The principal Regulations govern loans under the Education (Scotland) Act 1980 for eligible students attending designated courses of higher education.
The principal Regulations are amended to allow the Scottish Ministers to pay loans to students on distance learning courses as well as students actually attending courses of education (regulations 3-5). A minor consequential amendment is made to regulation 13 of the principal Regulations which governs entitlement to a loan when absent from a course to ensure that the regulation applies only where attendance is a requirement of the course (regulation 8).
Regulation 6 amends the conditions which a part-time student must meet to be eligible for a loan by clarifying the date on which the relevant conditions must be satisfied and removing the requirement that married students must have been married for a period of two years.
Regulation 9 amends regulation 15 of the principal Regulations to remove the need for annual regulations to change to the level of interest payable on loans.

Section 73(f) was amended by the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998 (c. 30), section 29(1) and by the Education (Graduate Endowment and Student Support) (Scotland) Act 2001 (asp 6), section 3(2). Section 73B was inserted by the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998, section 29(2) and was amended by the Education (Graduate Endowment and Student Support) (Scotland) Act 2001, section 3(3). Section 74 was amended by the Self-Governing Schools etc. (Scotland) Act 1989 (c. 39) Schedule 10, paragraph 8(17). The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46).
