These Regulations amend the Education (Fees and Awards) (Scotland) Regulations 1983 to extend the existing power to charge higher relevant fees in the case of students who do not have a relevant connection with the United Kingdom and Islands, and are not excepted students within the meaning of Schedule 1 to those Regulations. The power, which applied to students undertaking full time and sandwich courses, is extended to cover also students who undertake part-time courses.

The power to charge such higher relevant fees will not apply where the student begins the part-time course before 1st September 1995.
