Government Response: The Education (Information about Children in Independent Schools) (Pilot) (Wales) Regulations 2025

Technical Scrutiny point 1: The Welsh Government notes that two Welsh local authorities are referred to slightly differently in these Regulations than in Schedule 1 to the Children Act 2004 (Children Missing Education Database) (Pilot) (Wales) Regulations 2025. Despite these minor differences, the Welsh Government considers that the Regulations are clear as to which local authorities the pilot applies. The Regulations cease to have effect on 20 May 2025.
