Policing and Crime Bill

Item 3 is consideration of the legislative consent memorandum on the United Kingdom Parliament’s Policing and Crime Bill. The committee is invited to consider the powers to make subordinate legislation that are conferred on the Scottish ministers in the bill. A briefing paper has been provided that sets out the relevant aspects of the bill and comments on their effect.

Does the committee agree to report to the lead committee that it is content with the one delegated power that is conferred on the Scottish ministers in the bill and the procedure to which that power is subject?

Members indicated agreement.
