Draft Instrument Subject <br />to Approval
Private Landlord Registration (Modification) (Scotland) Order 2005 (draft)
Agenda item 5 is a draft instrument subject to approval. The draft order adds new categories of houses to the list in section 83(6) of the Antisocial Behaviour etc (Scotland) Act 2004 and covers properties that are to be disregarded for the purposes of registration as a landlord under part 8 of that act. The committee will note that article 2(h)(ii) refers to the "Crofters (Scotland) Act 2003", but we are reliably informed that there is no such act and that the reference should be to the Crofters (Scotland) Act 1993. The Executive acknowledges the error but points out that the act is correctly cited in paragraph (g) of the article. The Executive has accepted the point and confirmed that the instrument will be amended before it is made—well done. Are members content for the draft order to proceed on the basis that the correction will be made?
