Subordinate Legislation
Environmental Protection (Single-use Plastic Products) (Scotland) Regulations 2021 (SSI 2021/410)
Scottish Road Works Commissioner (Imposition of Penalties) Amendment Regulations 2021 (SSI 2021/431)
Agenda item 2 is consideration of two negative instruments. The instruments are laid under the negative procedure, which means that their provisions will come into force unless the Parliament agrees a motion to annul them. No motions to annul have been lodged.
The first instrument that we are considering is the Environmental Protection (Single-use Plastic Products) (Scotland) Regulations 2021. The committee heard evidence on the regulations from the Minister for Green Skills, Circular Economy and Biodiversity on 30 November and from stakeholders on 7 December.
Do members have any comments on the instrument? As there are no comments from members, I invite the committee to agree that it does not wish to make any further recommendations in relation to the instrument. As I do not see any further comments, we are agreed.

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