Apologies have been received from Deputy Alan Farrell and Deputy Conway-Walsh.

I remind Members and officials to ensure that their mobile phones are switched off for the duration of the meeting as they interfere with the broadcasting equipment of the Houses.

This meeting has been convened to consider the Education (Admission to Schools) Bill 2020. I remind Members that should a vote be called, they must be physically present in the committee room in order to vote.
