Damages (Asbestos-related Conditions) (Scotland) Bill: Stage 1

The Convener:

The bill contains only one delegated power, which is in section 4, "Commencement and retrospective effect". Are we satisfied that the commencement power in section 4(1) is acceptable in principle and that it is subject to no parliamentary procedure?

Members indicated agreement.

That concludes our consideration of the bill at stage 1.
