Subordinate Legislation

Local Government Pension Scheme (Miscellaneous Amendments) (Scotland) Regulations 2019 (SSI 2019/161)

Agenda item 5 is consideration of an instrument that is subject to negative procedure. I refer members to paper 3. The instrument’s provisions will come into force unless the Parliament agrees to a motion to annul it. No motions to annul have been lodged.

The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument at its meeting on 21 May 2019. It reported to the Parliament on two errors that are contained in the instrument, but welcomed

“the Government's undertaking to lay a further instrument to correct the errors timeously for these Regulations to come into force on 28 June 2019.”

As members have no comments on the instrument, I invite the committee to agree that it does not wish to make any recommendations in relation to the instrument. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

That ends the public part of the meeting.
