(This note is not part of the Order.)
These Regulations amend the Further Education Teachers' (Eligibility) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1997 which deal with the eligibility of teachers to teach in institutions of further education.
The principal amendments substitute references to governing bodies of institutions of further education for the references to education and library boards in the principal Regulations.
The amendments are required as a consequence of the Further Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997 (S.I. 1997/1772 (N.I. 15)) which provides for the transfer of responsibility for the management of institutions of further education from education and library boards to incorporated governing bodies established in relation to each institution.
Article 70 was substituted by Article 8 of S.I. 1987/167 (N.I. 2) and Article 70(1) was amended by Article 42(2) of S.I. 1993/2810 (N.I. 12)
As amended by Article 50(1) and Part II of Schedule 4 to S.I. 1993/2810 (N.I. 12)
S.I. 1986/594 (N.I. 3)
S.I. 1997/1772 (N.I. 15)
