The Student Fees (Qualifying Courses and Persons) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2007
Article 4 of the Higher Education (Northern Ireland) Order 2005 requires the Department to impose a condition on grants given to the governing body of higher and further education institutions. This condition requires the governing bodies to secure that the qualifying fees payable in respect of any qualifying course by a qualifying person do not exceed the basic or higher fee amounts applicable to that course. The fee amounts are prescribed by The Student Fees (Amounts) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2006 (S.R. 2006 No. 455).
