(1)This section has effect in respect of the area of a local education authority if an order under section 12(1)(b) of this Act applies to the area.

(2)Within six months of the date of the first such order the local education authority shall reconvene any conference—

(a)which they have convened for the purpose set out in paragraph 1 or 12 of the Fifth Schedule to the M1Education Act 1944 (procedure for preparing and bringing into operation an agreed syllabus of religious education) or section 11(8) of the M2Education Reform Act 1988 (standing advisory councils on religious education), and

(b)to which subsection (3) below applies.

(3)This subsection applies to any conference—

(a)which has not made a recommendation under paragraph 9 or 13(2) of that Schedule, and

(b)in respect of which the authority have not made a report under paragraph 10 or 13(4) of that Schedule.

(4)Where a conference is convened (or reconvened) after the date of the order—

(a)paragraph 2 of that Schedule shall have effect as if it required the appointment of a committee, in addition to those listed in sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) of that paragraph, consisting of persons representing relevant grant-maintained schools, and

(b)section 146 of this Act shall have effect only in relation to grant-maintained schools, or pupils at such schools, at which the syllabus is in use in accordance with section 140(3) of this Act.

(5)Before appointing a person to represent relevant grant-maintained schools in accordance with subsection (4)(a) above, the local education authority shall take all reasonable steps to assure themselves that he is acceptable as such to the governing bodies of the majority of such schools; but no proceedings under that Schedule shall be invalidated on the ground that the person was not so acceptable unless it is shown that the local education authority failed to take such steps.

(6)A person so appointed may resign his membership of the committee or may, if in the opinion of the local education authority he ceases to be acceptable as a representative of relevant grant-maintained schools to the governing bodies of the majority of such schools, be withdrawn from the committee by the authority; and where a person resigns or is withdrawn from the committee the authority shall appoint someone in his place in the same manner as that in which they made the original appointment.

(7)For the purposes of this section, “relevant grant-maintained schools” means those grant-maintained schools within the area of the local education authority to which section 138 or 139 of this Act applies.
