EDUCATION, SCOTLAND

The Education (Schools) Act 1997 provides for the phasing out of the Assisted Places Scheme in England and Wales and Scotland after the beginning of the first term of the school session 1997/98. This Order commences on 1st December 1997 sections 5(2) and 6(3) (in part) and Part II of the Schedule to the Act which revoke provisions in the Education (Scotland) Act 1980 made redundant by this phasing out. As a result of commencement of these provisions of the 1997 Act, regulations 3 to 6 and 25 and 26 of the Education (Assisted Places) (Scotland) Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/1713) cease to have effect.
