Subordinate Legislation

Carbon Accounting Scheme (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2021 (SSI 2021/318)

Agenda item 3, which is our final item in public, is consideration of the Carbon Accounting Scheme (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2021. I refer members to paper 3.

The instrument is laid under the negative procedure, which means that its provisions will come into force unless the Parliament agrees to a motion to annul it. No motion to annul it has been laid.

The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument on 21 September and determined that it did not need to draw the attention of the Parliament to it on any grounds within its remit.

Do members have any comments on the instrument?

As there are no comments, I invite the committee to agree that it does not wish to make any further recommendations in relation to the instrument.

Members indicated agreement.

The committee will now move into private session.
