These Regulations set out the procedure to be followed in proceedings before the Education Tribunal for Wales. These Regulations make provision relating to the exercise of that Tribunal’s jurisdiction under Part 2 of the Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018 which concerns additional learning needs appeals, and Chapter 1 of Part 6 of the Equality Act 2010 which concerns claims of disability discrimination in respect of school pupils.

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 Welsh Government at Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ and on the Welsh Government website at www.gov.wales.
