The Education (Objections to Admission Arrangements) Regulations 1999

Power to alter arrangements following decision on an objection

10.—(1) This regulation applies where–

(a) the adjudicator or the Secretary of State has made a decision upholding to any extent an objection to admission arrangements determined by an admission authority; and

(b) a relevant admission authority reasonably believe that the arrangements which they have determined are, so far as material–

(i) the same as those arrangements; or

(ii) sufficiently similar for the same decision to have been made against them had an objection been made.

(2) In a case where this regulation applies, the relevant admission authority may revise their admission arrangements by making such alterations as they reasonably believe to be necessary to achieve consistency with the decision, and may determine their arrangements in that revised form.

(3) Any such determination of revised arrangements shall not be made later than two months after the date on which the decision and the reasons for it were notified under regulation 8(1)(a).

(4) In this regulation, “relevant admission authority” means an admission authority who, before they determined the admission arrangements that they wish to revise, were required under section 89(2) to consult the admission authority against whom the decision was made.
