Regulation 4 Determination of amount of maintenance grant

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

Subject to paragraphs (2) and (4) and regulation 12, the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of a school for the financial year in question shall be the sum of the following amounts—

(a)

an amount determined in accordance with (as the case may be) regulation 5, 6 or 7;

(b)

an amount determined in accordance with regulation 8 and (where applicable) regulation 9;

(c)

an amount determined in accordance with regulation 10(1); and

(d)

where an amount is required to be determined in accordance with regulation 11(3), the amount so determined.

(2)

Where in the opinion of the Secretary of State precise calculation for the purpose of determining any of the amounts referred to in paragraph (1)—

(a)

would be impracticable;

(b)

would not significantly affect the amount; or

(c)

would be disproportionately costly having regard to the complexity of the calculation and the likely effect on the amount,

paragraph (1) shall have effect as if it required the Secretary of State to determine as the amount of maintenance grant payable for the financial year in question such amount as appears to him to be fair and reasonable having regard in particular to the relevant authority’s scheme.

(3)

In these Regulations references to the financial year in question are references to the financial year in respect of which the determination of maintenance grant is made.

(4)

Where the Secretary of State determines an amount under regulation 11(5) in respect of a school for the financial year in question, that amount shall be deducted from the sum of the amounts referred to in paragraph (1) in determining the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of the school for the financial year in question under this regulation.
