# The Education (Postgraduate Doctoral Degree Loans) (Wales) Regulations 2018, Regulation 15: Provision of United Kingdom national insurance number

Extent: E+W

(1) The Welsh Ministers may make it a condition of entitlement to payment of the postgraduate doctoral degree loan that an eligible student must provide them with the student's United Kingdom national insurance number.
(2) If that condition is imposed, the Welsh Ministers may not make any payment of the loan until the eligible student has complied, unless the Welsh Ministers are satisfied that, owing to exceptional circumstances, it would be appropriate to make a payment despite the condition not being complied with.
