(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
These Regulations which come into operation on 1st November 2004 have effect on and from 1st September 2004 amend the Students Awards Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2003 (“the principal Regulations”).
Retrospection is authorised by Article 50(2) of the Education and Libraries (Northern Ireland) Order 1986.
