5. Within 15 days after receiving the draft, the school service centre must send to the department, as the case may be, a notice of compliance or a notice setting out any corrections the school service centre proposes to the list of its assets.

Any comments that the school service centre deems appropriate to submit regarding the estimate of future space requirements may also be attached to a notice.

If the school service centre fails to send a notice within the period provided for in the first paragraph or within the additional period granted by the department, if applicable, the school service centre is deemed to have sent a notice of compliance.

Only editorial adjustments that allow the document to be used for the purposes of the consultation provided for in section 211 of the Education Act or intended to facilitate municipalities’ understanding may be made to the space requirement forecast, such as adding a list of municipalities for each territory of analysis or a map delimiting the different sectors.
