    Can't answer yes or no.:

    Probably. Placements outside of England and Wales have been named by the Tribunal under the EA 1996R v Cheshire County Council ex parte C (1998) ELR 66White v London Borough of Ealing (1988) ELR 203. In the case of White the LA argued that it was not obliged to pay fees on a school outside of its jurisdiction where this had been named by the Tribunal. Dyson J however considered that the LA was in breach of its duties to secure provision in not paying the fees of the school in Boston (MA USA) named in the SSEN.
