Subordinate Legislation Committee, 13 Jan 2009

Budget (Scotland) (No 2) Bill: Stage 1

The Convener:

We have done this before. As with previous budget bills, a single delegated power is granted to the Scottish ministers. Section 7 confers on the Scottish ministers the power to make delegated legislation to amend the amount specified in certain provisions. As is customary with budget bills, any such order will be subject to affirmative procedure. The reasons for that are in the legal brief and they seem to be pretty clear. Are we content with that?

Members indicated agreement.
