Commentary on Sections Part 1: Collaboration by education bodies Section 6 - Regulations about the power to collaborate
16.Subsection (1) provides a power for the Welsh Ministers to make further provision by way of regulations about the power to collaborate. Regulations under this subsection could, for example, set out the functions that an education body cannot delegate to another body or to a joint committee.
17.Subsection (2) provides that regulations may make particular provision about the constitution and procedure of joint committees of the collaborating education bodies, and other connected matters.
18.Subsections (3) and (4) provide that regulations may modify any legislation relating to the functions of the collaborating education bodies, where those functions are delegated, or relating to the bodies by whom those functions are to be discharged, in its application to those functions or bodies. Legislation may need to be modified in order to reflect the fact that another body or a joint committee may in fact be carrying out a particular function (in the place of, or as well as the education body on whom the function is conferred).
