The Education Tribunal for Wales (Amendment) Regulations 2021

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Education Tribunal for Wales Regulations 2021 (“the Tribunal Regulations”).

Regulation 2 of these Regulations substitutes a new regulation 17(2) of the Tribunal Regulations to provide that the case statement period for a claimant making a claim under the Equality Act 2010 is 8 weeks beginning on the date that the acknowledgement of receipt of a claim is received.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
