64. The dissentients in any municipality who, as such, form a dissentient school board, may, upon their application, with the approval of the Minister, unite with a neighbouring school municipality of their religious belief, either completely or only for the purpose of sending their children to school.

In the case of a complete union, the school funds of the dissentient municipality which applied for the union shall be remitted to the school municipality to which it has been united, and the territory comprised in such municipality shall form part of the municipality to which it has been united for all school purposes.

If the union be only for the purpose of sending the children of dissentients to the schools of a neighbouring school municipality, the commissioners of the dissentient school board who have applied for the union shall continue to collect the school taxes from the ratepayers bound to pay the same, but shall remit the amount to the school board to which they are united, within sixty days after the taxes have become due.

In both cases above-mentioned, there shall be but one rate of taxation for school purposes for the two municipalities.

Such union may be cancelled by the Minister upon the petition of either school municipality after twelve months’ notice to that effect published in two consecutive numbers of the Gazette officielle du Québec.
