I move amendment No. 113:

In page 26, line 19, to delete "prescribed date" and substitute "date determined in procedures under subsection (19)".

Amendments Nos. 113, 114 and 116 to 119, inclusive, are proofing amendments within the section of the Bill that provides for a school to be designated by the NCSE or the Child and Family Agency. These amendments replace the phrase "period determined in procedures" with the phrase "prescribed period" in the provisions concerning the timelines within which appeals under this section may be made by a school or by a parent and the timelines by which such appeals must be decided by an appeals committee. The Bill already separately provides for the timelines in relation to such appeals to be determined in procedures rather than by regulations and these amendments are necessary to ensure consistency with that approach.
