Sheriff Court Fees Amendment Order 2018 (SSI 2018/194)

The Convener

Agenda item 4 is consideration of the Sheriff Court Fees Amendment Order 2018, which is subject to negative procedure. I refer members to paper 3, which is a note by the clerk. The paper includes the Scottish Government’s response to a concern that was raised by the committee about the original instrument containing an error that allowed certain exemptions for commissary fees.

Members have no comments. I note that it was good that we raised the issue and that we are satisfied with the explanation. Does the committee agree not to make any recommendation on the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.
