Education (Admission to School) Bill 2016: Report Stage (Resumed)

I move amendment No. 28:
In page 13, to delete lines 12 to 20 and substitute “under section 29B.”.
This amendment provides for the deletion from the Bill of a provision which requires that a direction by an appeals committee must not provide that a school’s admissions policy be disregarded or amended. However, this would have had the unintended consequence of preventing an appeals committee from allowing an appeal and directing a school to admit a student where the policy of the school was contrary to the requirements of the Bill and resulted in a child not being admitted to the school who otherwise should have been admitted.
