The Education (Determination of Admission Arrangements) (Wales) Regulations 2006

Matters to which consultation is to relate

8.—(1) Consultation under section 89(2) must relate to all of the arrangements (including the whole admissions policy) which the admission authority proposes to determine as the admission arrangements for the school for the particular school year, except any exempt arrangements.

(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1), admission arrangements are exempt to the extent (if any) that—

(a) section 89 is excluded by section 103(1) and (2) from applying to their determination (making or abandonment of provision for selection which constitutes a prescribed alteration for the purposes of section 28);

(b) (except where sub-paragraph (a) applies) they make provision of a kind which would, when first made at a school which previously had no such provision, effect a prescribed alteration for the purposes of section 28.
