Section 122: Sharing of information for education and training purposes

331.This section allows information sharing between bodies and persons replacing the Learning and Skills Council to enable or facilitate the exercise of their functions. It does not, however, extend local education authorities' existing statutory powers to share information with each other.

332.The section does not allow information to be passed on if doing so would be an offence, nor where there are other statutory restrictions which prohibit its disclosure.
