Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Order (including any effects on those provisions):
60 .F1—(1) Subject to a scheme which shall be framed by [F2the Authority] and approved by the Department, where it appears to [F2the Authority] that a pupil at a grant-aided school or institution of further education, being a pupil of such description as is specified in the scheme, is unable by reason of the inadequacy or unsuitability of his clothing to take full advantage of the education provided at the school or institution, [F2the Authority] shall provide such pupil with or contribute towards the cost of the provision of such clothing as is specified in the scheme and is in the opinion of [F2the Authority] necessary to ensure that he is adequately and suitably clad.
(2) A scheme under paragraph (1) shall also, subject to such conditions as are specified in the scheme, authorise [F2the Authority] to defray the expenses of such pupils attending the school or institution as are specified in the scheme being expenses which in the opinion of [F2the Authority] are necessary to enable those pupils to take part in the activities of the school or institution without hardship to themselves or to their parents.
(3) A board may, in accordance with the provisions of the scheme under paragraph (1), recover from the parent of a pupil the whole or part of the expenditure incurred under the scheme in respect of the pupil provided such recovery can be made without causing hardship to the parent.
