Reference to adjudicator of other proposals

10 (1) Where any proposals are referred to the adjudicator under paragraph 9, the school organisation committee must also refer to him—

(a) any other proposals published under paragraph 7 in relation to the area of the local education authority (and not withdrawn),

(b) any proposals made by that authority in the exercise of their powers to make or invite proposals for the establishment, alteration or discontinuance of schools (and not withdrawn),

(e) any proposals published under Schedule 7 to the Learning and Skills Act 2000 (c. 21) (and not withdrawn),

where those proposals are not determined before the adjudicator holds an inquiry under paragraph 11(1) and appear to the committee to be related to the proposals referred by them to the adjudicator under paragraph 9.
