I move amendment No. 44:

In page 15, to delete lines 27 to 29 and substitute the following:“others,

(c) a school to which section 7(3)(ca) (inserted by section 10(a)(ii)of the Education (Admission to Schools) Act 2018) of the Act of 2000 applies, whose objective is to provide education in an environment which promotes certain religious values, the admission statement of the school shall include a statement that the school does not discriminate in relation to the admission of students where it refuses to admit as a student a person who is not of a particular religious denomination and it is proved that the refusal is essential to maintain the ethos of the school,

(d) a school to which section 7(3)(cb) (inserted by section 10(a)(ii)of the Education (Admission to Schools) Act 2018) of the Act of 2000 applies, the admission statement of the school shall include a statement that the school does not discriminate in relation to the admission of students where it admits as a student a person in accordance with section 7A (inserted by section 10(b)of the Education (Admission to Schools) Act 2018) of the Act of 2000,".
