# The Education (Assisted Places) Regulations 1989, Regulation 12: General provisions relating to remission


(1) The parents of an assisted pupil shall not be entitled to any remission of fees for which they are liable in respect of a period before the pupil took up his assisted place or (in lieu of notice or otherwise) after he has left the school or, if he so remains at the school, after the end of the school year in which he attains the age of 20 years.
(2) The parents of an assisted pupil shall not be entitled to any remission of fees which are required to be paid in pursuance of an order of a court.
(3) The parents of an assisted pupil shall be under no obligation to apply for remission of fees as respects a particular school year if they consider themselves not entitled thereto but if, as respects such a year, they do not—
(a) duly apply to the school for remission of fees payable for that year, or
(b) subject to Regulation 14(4), duly furnish the school with the information and supporting evidence requisite for determining remission questions,
they shall not be entitled to any remission of fees for that year.
(4) If the Secretary of State is satisfied that, in the case of a particular assisted pupil, his parents have furnished information required for determining remission questions which they know to be false in a material particular, or have recklessly furnished such information which is false in a material particular, he may direct that those parents shall not be entitled to any remission of fees in the case of that pupil and, if he so directs, in the case of any other of their children who are assisted pupils, as respects a specified school year and, if he so directs, any subsequent school year:
Provided that—
(a) the Secretary of State shall not give a direction hereunder without affording the parents concerned an opportunity to make representations or without considering such representations;
(b) the giving of a direction hereunder shall be without prejudice to its variation or revocation by a subsequent direction.
(5) This Regulation shall have effect notwithstanding anything in Regulation l3 or any other provision of these Regulations.
