The Minister, at any time, may amend an original non-intake area determination by – adding a class of school-aged children, youths and persons who are eligible to enrol in the State school to which the determination relates; or omitting a class of school-aged children, youths and persons who, immediately before the amendment, are eligible to enrol in the State school to which the determination relates; or omitting any or all classes of school-aged children, youths and persons who, immediately before the amendment, are eligible to enrol in the State school to which the determination relates and substituting other classes of school-aged children, youths and persons who are eligible to enrol in the school.
The Minister is to publish, in such manner as the Minister considers appropriate, a determination made under this section and either the intake area for the relevant school or the classes of school-aged children, youths and persons who are eligible to enrol at the school.
