Regulation 12 General provisions relating to remission
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.
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 or a separation agreement.
If the parents of an assisted pupil do not
duly apply to the school for remission of fees payable for a particular school year, or
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.
If the Secretary of State is satisfied that, in the case of a particular assisted pupil, his parents have knowingly or recklessly furnished information required for determining remission questions which is false in a material particular, subject to paragraph (5), she may direct that those parents shall not be entitled to any remission of fees in the case of that pupil and, if she so directs, in the case of any other of their children who are assisted pupils, as respects a specified school year and, if she so directs, any subsequent school year.
The Secretary of State shall not give a direction pursuant to paragraph (4) without—
affording the parents concerned an opportunity to make representations, and
considering any such representations.
The Secretary of State may vary or revoke a direction made pursuant to paragraph (4).
This regulation shall have effect notwithstanding anything in regulation 13 or any other provision of these Regulations.
