Changes in designations and statements

4.—(1) Where the Welsh Ministers are at any time of the opinion—

(a)that a school has been incorrectly designated or not designated; or

(b)that the statement as to the relevant religion or religious denomination is incorrect

they must amend the order in question or make another order as they consider appropriate.

(2) Before making an order in accordance with paragraph (1) the Welsh Ministers must consult—

(a)the governing body and any trustees of the school; and

(b)such religious bodies set out in Schedule 1 as they consider appropriate.

(3) In so far as the Welsh Ministers make an order under section 69(3) of the 1998 Act which—

(a)does not change the designation of a school, or the statement as to the relevant religion or religious denomination in relation to that school, made in a previous order (other than a provisional designation or statement); or

(b)removes an entry on the discontinuance of the school,

they need undertake no consultation in relation to that particular designation or statement before making such an order.
