Executive Responses


Building Standards Advisory Committee (Scotland) Regulations 2004 (SSI 2004/506)

The Convener:

Members will remember that we raised the issue of appointments. Our legal advice indicates that we might want to leave it up to the ministers to clarify the issue when they are writing their letters of appointment. Are members content with that?

Members indicated agreement.


Road User Charging (Exemption from Charges) (Scotland) Regulations 2004 <br />(SSI 2004/519)

The Convener:

We were concerned that regulation 3(b) confers discretion, but because of the introduction to the regulation it is expressed as an obligation. We asked for clarification on that point, which we have received, and I suggest that we pass that on to the lead committee and Parliament.

Members indicated agreement.
