520. The provisional council shall establish a three-year plan of allocation and destination of immovables distributed to the new school board; the plan shall be sent to each regional county municipality or urban community whose territory coincides wholly or partly with that of the school board.
The provisional council shall then establish the list of schools and, where applicable, of vocational training and adult education centers operated by the new school board and issue deeds of establishment to them.
The deeds of establishment have effect from 1 July in the year following the year of publication of the territorial division order.
Unless it has been placed under the supervision of a confessional council, a school established in premises or immovables situated outside the territory of the city of Montréal or Québec which were, on 30 September of that year, under the jurisdiction of a confessional or dissentient school board or at the disposal of a school recognized as Catholic or Protestant is deemed to be a school recognized as Catholic or Protestant according to the confession of the confessional or dissentient school board or, as the case may be, shall retain that recognition until the Catholic committee or the Protestant committee revokes it of its own initiative or at the request of the provisional council or the new school board.
Moreover, a school established in premises or immovables situated in the territory of the city of Montréal or Québec which were, on 30 September of that year, under the jurisdiction of a confessional or dissentient school board or at the disposal of a school recognized as Catholic or Protestant shall be placed under the supervision of the Catholic or Protestant confessional council, according to the religious confession of the confessional or dissentient school board or according to the recognition of the school as Catholic or Protestant.
The new school board, unless it is a dissentient school board, is required, before the end of the third school year in which it provides educational services, to consult the persons and bodies referred to in section 218 on the advisability of maintaining such recognition or the persons and bodies referred to in section 508.1 on the advisability of withdrawing the school from the supervision of the confessional council.
