(2) The Institute shall, in relation to the year commencing on 1 January 1988 and each subsequent year, impose in respect of that year an amount of charge as provided by this section in respect of each student liable to charge.

(3) Subject to this section, a student is liable to charge if the student—

        (a)     becomes enrolled, by a relevant enrolment, at the Institute during the year; or

        (b)     is undertaking a course or part of a course at the Institute at a relevant date in the year, although not enrolled at the Institute.

        (b)     if paragraph (3) (b) applies—on the relevant date referred to in that paragraph.

(5) A student is not liable to charge on a date in the year if the student has become liable to charge on an earlier date in the year in respect of the Institute.

(7) Where—

        (a)     at any time during the year, a student would be liable to charge in respect of the Institute but is not liable because the student is a person of a kind referred to in paragraph (b) or (c) of the definition of “relevant enrolment” in subsection (1); and

        (b)     at a later time in the year, the student is not such a person;

the student is not liable to charge in respect of the Institute in that year.

(10) For the purposes of this section, where the enrolment of a person to undertake a course of study or instruction at the Institute entitles the person to undertake a part of that course in more than 1 year, the person shall be deemed to become enrolled to undertake that course in respect of each year in which the person undertakes a part of that course except where that course is of less than 12 months' duration and the person undertakes that course continuously.

(11) The reference in subsection (9) to the final payment day for a course or a part of a course in a year is a reference to such day during that year as is determined by the Board in relation to that course or that part of that course.
