Government Amendments to CNIS Register make it Less Bad

This post sets out my interpretation of the government’s amendments to the Children Not In School Register which at the time of writing are scheduled to be discussed at Report in the House of Lords on July 18th 2022. The Bill will be reprinted after it finishes in the Lords to incorporate amendments carried in the Lords and as explained here, government amendments always go through. This post gives a preview what the CNIS clauses will look like with amendments. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE REGISTRATION CLAUSES WERE AMENDED SUBSTANTIALLY FOR THE BETTER FOLLOWING REPORT STAGE IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS ON JULY 18TH, ALSO THAT THE CLAUSES NUMBERS ARE ALL NOW DIFFERENT. UP TO DATE INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND VIA THE #SCHOOLSBILL TAG
