(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations enable the Secretary of State to pay grants to persons other than local education authorities in respect of expenditure incurred or to be incurred for or in connection with the provision of nursery education in the areas listed in regulation 2(2) during the financial year 1996–97. The local education authorities for those areas have chosen to participate in funding arrangements relating to nursery education for four year olds which do not apply to other local education authorities.
