Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This notice cancels the Commonwealth approval for the Wide Bay Institute of TAFE (Queensland) to operate as a Vocational Education and Training (VET — job-focused training and education) provider under the Higher Education Support Act 2003.

What this means:

The institute specifically asked the Minister to revoke its approval (a voluntary cancellation)
Once effective, the institute can no longer receive Commonwealth VET funding or operate under this approval
The cancellation takes effect on 1 July 2014, or the day after TAFE Queensland (the new body) is formally approved if that happens later
This appears to be part of a Queensland government restructure consolidating individual TAFE colleges into the single TAFE Queensland entity
