I move amendment No. 8:

In page 24, between lines 33 and 34, to insert the following:“(2A) Where an inquiry is held under subsection (1) the child shall be provided with an opportunity to be heard and to respond to any allegation of disciplinary breach orally or in writing.”.

My amendment provides that if a child is subject to an inquiry over a disciplinary breach that he or she gets a chance to respond to any allegations.
