I move amendment No. 19:

In page 6, between lines 21 and 22, to insert the following:"(c) a school that, with the approval of the Minister, provides an education exclusively for students with a specified category or categories of special educational needs, the admission statement of the school shall include a statement that the school may refuse to admit a student who does not have the specified category of special educational needs concerned, and

(d) a school that, in addition to the general admission of students has, with the approval of the Minister, established a class to provide an education exclusively for students with a specified category or categories of special educational needs, the admission statement of the school shall include a statement that the school may refuse to admit to the class concerned a student who does not have the specified category of special educational needs concerned.".

Is this associated with the one we are saying we will revert to on Report Stage?
