Subordinate Legislation

Children’s Hearings (Scotland) Act 2011 (Rules of Procedure in Children’s Hearings) Amendment Rules 2022 (SSI 2022/264)

Welcome back. Our next agenda item is consideration of subordinate legislation—the Children’s Hearings (Scotland) Act 2011 (Rules of Procedure in Children’s Hearings) Amendment Rules 2022. The instrument is subject to the negative procedure and seeks to ensure that the rules about the composition of pre-hearing panels are consistent with the Children’s Hearings (Scotland) Act 2011.

Does anybody have any comments to make on the Scottish statutory instrument? No one is indicating that they wish to make comments. Does the committee agree that it does not wish to make any recommendations on the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.

We are agreed. Thank you.

The public part of today’s meeting is at an end, and we will consider our final agenda items in private. Thank you, and good afternoon.
