The Education (Fees at Higher Education Institutions) Regulations 1999
Section 26(4) of the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998 enables the Secretary of State to impose a condition on grants to the Higher Education Funding Council for England, the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales or the Teacher Training Agency requiring them to impose a new type of condition on financial support given to the governing body of a relevant institution. This condition would require the governing body to secure that the fees payable by a prescribed class of persons, in connection with them attending courses of any prescribed description are equal to “prescribed amount” as defined in section 26(5). The amounts in question are prescribed in the Education (Student Support) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/496).
