515.8. Where a notice of dissent is served on more than one new school board of the same category by persons of the same religious minority, Catholic or Protestant, the Government may, by order, establish a single dissentient school board responsible for providing educational services in the territory determined by the Government.
The order shall determine the name of the new dissentient school board. It comes into force on the date of its publication in the Gazette officielle du Québec.
The members of the provisional councils of the dissentient school boards concerned form, from the publication of the order, the provisional council of the new dissentient school board.
However, the Minister may limit the number of members from the provisional council of each dissentient school board; the members shall, in such a case, be designated by their respective provisional councils.
