Commentary on provisions of the Act Section 6: Reviews
Section 6 amends sections A2D8 and A2E of the 2009 Act, by removing the duty, at regular and published intervals, to review technical education qualifications, standards and apprenticeship assessment plans. This will enable reviews to continue, according to priorities and employers’ needs. The sections, as amended, will still require the Secretary of State to maintain arrangements to review approved technical education qualifications, standards and apprenticeship assessment plans with a view to determining whether they should be revised or withdrawn (and whether qualifications should continue to be approved).
