# The Financing of Maintained Schools (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2001, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Financing of Maintained Schools Regulations 1999 (which now apply only to Wales) to give effect to a decision by the National Assembly that it is not appropriate for expenditure on the administration of education committees or expenditure on external audit to be included in a local education authority’s local schools budget. These Regulations accordingly amend regulations 2 and 3 of the 1999 Regulations (which set out what expenditure is, and is not, included in that budget) to reflect that decision.
The Regulations also make consequential amendments to Schedule 2 to the 1999 Regulations (which specifies classes and descriptions of expenditure which may be deducted from a local education authority’s local schools budget in order to arrive at their individual schools budget) to remove references to the 2 categories of expenditure referred to above.
