Explanatory note

Reproduced verbatim from the instrument as published on legislation.gov.uk (Crown Copyright, Open Government Licence v3.0). The note is prepared by the responsible government department and is not part of the instrument itself.

These Regulations amend the Higher Education (Qualifying Courses and Qualifying Persons) (Wales) Regulations 2026 to correct an error in those Regulations.

Regulation 2 amends the English language text of paragraph (1)(e) of condition 1 in regulation 3(2) of those Regulations by inserting the correct text, which relates to courses leading to the Higher National Diploma or the Higher National Certificate of the Business and Technician Education Council or the Diploma in Management Studies.

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.
