EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations prescribe the maximum amount which an institution with an approved fee and access plan in force will be able to charge by way of tuition fees for full-time undergraduate courses.

Regulation 3 prescribes the maximum amount which will apply. Regulations 4, 5 and 6 prescribe lower maximum amounts in respect of certain courses.

Regulation 7 provides that, where a course is a franchised course, fees are to be treated as payable to the institution on whose behalf the course is provided, and that the total fees that a student pays must not exceed the amount prescribed by these Regulations.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. A copy can be obtained from the Higher Education Division, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ.
