Discontinuance of Aberdeen and Peterhead Prisons (Scotland) Order 2014 (SSI 2014/13)
Item 2 is consideration of two negative instruments.
The first instrument formally discontinues the prisons at Aberdeen and Peterhead. The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee had no concerns about the order. As members have no comments, are we content to make no recommendation on the order?
Members indicated agreement.
Act of Sederunt (Fees of Solicitors in the Sheriff Court) (Amendment) 2014 (SSI 2014/14)
The second negative instrument provides that all monetary values in ordinary causes are expressed as a multiple or fraction of the new rate of £156 per hour—I do not know what that means, but there we are. Do members know what that means? Roderick Campbell does.
I know what it means.
The DPLR Committee had no comments on the instrument. Do members have any comments?
Members: No.
Thank you.
