# The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (Transfer of Functions etc) Act 2025 (Consequential Amendments) Regulations 2025, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make amendments to secondary legislation in consequence of the coming into force of the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (Transfer of Functions etc) Act 2025 (c. 14). That Act abolishes the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (“the Institute”) and transfers its functions to the Secretary of State.
Regulation 2 amends the Education (Student Support) Regulations 2011 (S.I. 2011/1986) to replace references to the Institute with the Secretary of State.
Regulation 3 amends the Trade Union (Facility Time Publication Requirements) Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/328) and regulation 5 amends the Trade Union (Deduction of Union Subscriptions from Wages in the Public Sector) Regulations 2024 (S.I. 2024/143) to remove the Institute from the lists of public bodies to which those Regulations apply.
Regulation 4 amends the Apprenticeships (Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/1310) to replace references to approved standards with references to published standards. Regulation 4 also revokes the Institute’s power in those Regulations to charge fees for the carrying out of evaluations of apprenticeship assessments.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
