Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

Where an education administrator considers that a document forming part of the records of an education administration—

(a)

should be treated as confidential; or

(b)

is of such a nature that its disclosure would be prejudicial to the conduct of the proceedings or might reasonably be expected to lead to violence against any person,

(2)

Where the education administrator refuses inspection of a document the person wishing to inspect it may apply to the court which may reconsider the education administrator’s decision.
