The clause relates to the power of the chief inspector to take enforcement action. Subsection (4) says that:

“the Chief Inspector has, during the period of three years before the enforcement action is taken, required the...institution to submit” an action plan. The comment of the Independent Schools Inspectorate is that, for such a school, that seems like a long period in which to require an action plan and to allow the school to languish in that condition. Will the Minister say why the figure of three years was put into the clause?
