Commentary on Sections Part 1: Apprenticeships, Study and Training Specification of apprenticeship standards: England Section 26: Replacement or modification: recognised English frameworks
64.If a new specification of apprenticeship standards for England is given effect to under section 24, or if an existing specification is modified under section 25, frameworks that have already been issued under section 14 may not comply with the requirements of the new or modified specification. Subsection (1) provides that a recognised English framework that fails to comply with a new or modified specification will not automatically cease to be recognised. But subsection (2) provides that an order under section 24, which would be subject to the negative resolution procedure, may provide for such a framework to cease to have effect as a recognised English framework.
