Instrument Not Laid Before <br />the Parliament
Public Appointments and Public Bodies etc (Scotland) Act 2003 (Commencement No 4) Order 2003 (SSI 2003/602)
Although the legal advisers have pointed out some drafting issues with the order, listing five particular points, I suggest that we simply pass those to the Executive in an informal letter, unless anybody wishes anything stronger to be done.
It seems a pity not to write formally to the Executive for each committee meeting, but if you really feel that we should start the new year on a more agreeable footing, convener, then I have no profound objection.
So you are quite happy.
Och, yes.
If that is agreed, then I thank members and bring the meeting to an end. I think that that is almost our record time.
Meeting closed at 10:36.
