I move amendment No. 56:

In page 17, lines 10 and 11, to delete “specified category or categories of”.

Amendment No. 56 is a proofing amendment. It deletes reference to “specified category or categories” in the provision that prohibits a school from giving priority based on attendance at a pre-school or pre-school service other than in the case of an early intervention class or early start pre-school. Otherwise, the wording might be open to the interpretation that schools could in fact prioritise certain types of other pre-schools. Deleting the wording in question ensures clarity that priority may be given only in the case of early intervention classes or early start pre-schools.
