  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Education (Penalty Notices) (England) Regulations 2007 (“the Principal Regulations”) to shorten the period in which the penalty notice must be paid to the local education authority.\nRegulation 4 of the Principal Regulations provides that the amount of the penalty to be paid is £60 if paid within 28 days of receipt of the notice; and £120 if paid within 42 days of receipt of the notice. These Regulations shorten the above periods from 28 days to 21 days and from 42 days to 28 days respectively (regulation 2).\nRegulations 5 (period for payment of the penalty) and 7 (period during which proceedings may not be instituted) of the Principal Regulations are also amended to shorten the period from 42 days to 28 days.\nThe shortened periods do not apply where the offences are alleged to have been wholly or partly committed before 1st September 2013 (regulation 3).\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.",
