Section 22 - Register of school language categories
102.Under section 22(1) a local authority must maintain and publish a register of the language categories of the schools in its area (see also section 52 for a specific provision relating to the publication of documents). The register must also include a record of all schools that have been given an exemption from the requirement to provide the minimum amount of Welsh language education, and the proposed language category of any new schools for which proposals have been made under section 41 of the School Standards and Organisation (Wales) Act 2013, as well as the proposed language category of proposed schools for which proposals have not been made under that section of that Act. In accordance with section 22(3) the Welsh Ministers are given the power to make regulations to make further provision about the matters to be included in the register together with its form and publication arrangements.
103.Section 22(2) amends section 41 of the School Standards and Organisation (Wales) Act 2013 to refer to the register in section 22(1) of this Act.
