  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations revoke and replace the Inspection of Education and Training (Wales) Regulations 2001, which were made under Part 4 of the Learning and Skills Act 2000.\nUnder Chapter 2 of Part 2 of the Tertiary Education and Research (Wales) Act 2022 (“the 2022 Act”), His Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education and Training in Wales must carry out inspections in respect of specific education and training and may also carry out area inspections. These Regulations make provision about both forms of inspection.\nRegulation 1 sets out the date on which these Regulations come into force and defines the 2022 Act.\nRegulation 2 specifies the intervals at which inspections of specific education and training are required to be carried out.\nRegulation 3 specifies the period within which inspection reports for both inspections of specific education and training and area inspections are required to be made and published respectively.\nRegulation 4 revokes Regulations concerning the inspection of education and training made under the Learning and Skills Act 2000.\nThe Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. A copy can be obtained from the Tertiary Education Directorate, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ.",
