Subordinate Legislation
Foods for Specific Groups (Scotland) Regulations 2016 (SSI 2016/190)
Item 2 is subordinate legislation. We have three instruments that are subject to negative procedure to consider today, the first of which is Scottish statutory instrument 2016/190.
No motion to annul has been lodged, but the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee has commented on the regulations. It has noted that the regulations omit to make further consequential amendments to the Foods Intended for Use in Energy Restricted Diets for Weight Reduction Regulations 1997, which are required as a result of the changes to the 1997 regulations that will be introduced by regulation 6. The Scottish Government accepts that the change that will be made by regulation 6 has led to insufficient clarity in the 1997 regulations, and undertakes to amend further the 1997 regulations at the earliest available opportunity.
Are there any comments from members? No. Somehow, I did not think that there would be.
Does the committee agree to make no recommendation on the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
Food Information (Scotland) AmendmentRegulations 2016 (SSI 2016/191)
The second instrument is SSI 2016/191. No motion to annul has been lodged, and the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee has made no comment on the instrument. I invite comments from members.
There are no comments, so does the committee agree to make no recommendation on the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
National Health Service (Free Prescriptions and Charges for Drugs and Appliances) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2016 (SSI 2016/195)
The third instrument is SSI 2016/195. No motion to annul has been lodged, and the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee has made no comment on the instrument. I ask for comments from members.
As there are no comments, does the committee agree to make no recommendation on the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
