If a notice under paragraph 1 of Schedule 15 (suspension of delegated budget for mismanagement etc.) has been given to the governing body before the date specified in a notice under section 16A(1) or 18A(1) but has not yet taken effect, the notice shall cease to have effect on that date.

During the interim period, the local education authority may not exercise the power conferred by section 17 (power to suspend right to delegated budget).
