Health Boards (Membership and Procedure) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2025 (SSI 2025/147)
The fourth item on our agenda today is consideration of a negative instrument. Regulation 3 of the Health Boards (Membership and Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 2001 provides that at least one of the persons appointed to be a chairperson or a member of the boards in the Grampian NHS Board, Greater Glasgow and Clyde NHS Board, Lothian NHS Board and Tayside NHS Board must hold a post at a university with a medical or dental school. The purpose of the instrument is to add Fife Health Board to that list. The amendment follows from the University of St Andrews (Degrees in Medicine and Dentistry) Act 2021, which restored to that university, which is situated within the Fife Health Board area, the power to award degrees in medicine and dentistry.
The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument at its meeting on 27 May 2025 and made no recommendations in relation to the instrument. No motion to annul has been received in relation to the instrument.
Do members have any comments?
As there are no comments, I propose that the committee makes no recommendation in relation to the instrument. Do members agree?
Members indicated agreement.
Thank you. That concludes the public part of our meeting today. At next week’s meeting, we will take evidence on welfare and sustainability in Scottish youth football.
