National Health Service Superannuation and Pension Schemes (Miscellaneous Amendment) (Scotland) Regulations 2025 (SSI 2025/259)
Agenda item 3 is consideration of two negative instruments. Scottish statutory instrument 2025/259 makes changes to the salary earnings bandings of the employee contribution tables from 1 April 2025 to ensure that the tiering of pay bands remains in line with annual increases in the pay of members of the schemes. The instrument also delivers a number of other policy changes, as well as making a series of technical and miscellaneous amendments to the national health service pension schemes.
The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument at its meeting on 30 September and made no recommendations in relation to it, although it welcomed the fact that the instrument corrects errors that that committee had previously identified in a 2023 instrument. No motion recommending annulment has so far been lodged in relation to the instrument.
I put on the record that I am a member of the NHS superannuation and pension schemes.
If members have no comments, I propose that the committee does not make any recommendations in relation to the instrument. Are members content to note the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
Sports Grounds and Sporting Events (Designation) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2025 (SSI 2025/262)
SSI 2025/262 amends the list of designated sports grounds in schedule 1 to the Sports Grounds and Sporting Events (Designation) (Scotland) Order 2014 to reflect promotion to and relegation from the relevant levels of the Scottish football pyramid and any relevant stadium name changes. This is in the context of police powers in relation to alcohol-related and other controls at football matches.
The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument at its meeting on 30 September and made no recommendations in relation to it. No motion recommending annulment has so far been received in relation to the instrument.
If members have no comments, I propose that the committee does not make any recommendations in relation to the instrument. Are members content to note the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
