School Standards and Organisation (Wales) Act 2013

63 Implementation of proposals

(1) Proposals adopted or approved by the Welsh Ministers under section 62 have effect as if they had been approved by the Welsh Ministers under section 50 after having been made—

(a) by the local authority under its powers to make proposals to establish, alter or discontinue schools, or

(b) in the case of proposals to alter a foundation or voluntary school, by the governing body under its powers to make proposals to alter its school.

(2) Despite anything in Part 1 of Schedule 3 (responsibility for implementation of statutory proposals), the local authority that maintains the school in question must meet the cost of implementing proposals adopted or approved under section 62 which have effect as mentioned in subsection (1)(b).
