These Regulations amend the Further Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997 to remove the requirement on the Department for the Economy to appoint two persons nominated by the Education Authority (formerly the Education and Library Boards) to each of the Governing Bodies of the Northern Ireland Further Education Institutions. In addition, they allow for existing Education Authority appointments to continue within the confines of their terms of appointment.
