# The Education (Provision of Clothing) Regulations 1980, Note: Explanatory note


These Regulations revoke the Provision of Clothing Regulations 1948 (which lapsed in part with the coming into force of section 29(1) of the Education Act 1980) and make fresh provision that where a local education authority provide clothing under section 5 of the Education (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1948, otherwise than on loan, they may make a charge. In conformity with section 5(6)(b), the sum charged is not to be such as to result in financial hardship or to exceed the authority's costs.
