Subordinate Legislation

Our next item concerns negative instruments. I will have something to say later with regard to the subordinate legislation papers because I think that we were drowning in them previously.


Tobacco Advertising and Promotion (Sponsorship Transitional Provisions) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2003 (SSI 2003/265)<br />Adults with Incapacity (Management of Residents' Finances) (No 2) (Scotland) Regulations 2003 (SSI 2003/266)

The Convener:

No comments have been received from members on the instruments. The Subordinate Legislation Committee had no comments to make and no motions to annul have been lodged. Do members agree to make no recommendations in relation to the instruments?

Members indicated agreement.


National Health Service Superannuation Scheme (Scotland) Amendment (No 2) Regulations 2003 (SSI 2003/270)

The Convener:

No comments have been received from members on the instrument. The Subordinate Legislation Committee has raised a number of points with the Executive; copies of those comments have been e-mailed to members. The comments relate to the use of the word "may", as I recall. Over such things lives have been lost in the past, of course, but no motion to annul has been lodged because the Executive's explanation was accepted by the Subordinate Legislation Committee. Do we agree to make no recommendation in relation to the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.


Sweeteners in Food Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 2003 (SSI 2003/274)

The Convener:

No comments have been received from members on the instrument. Again, the Subordinate Legislation Committee has raised a number of points with the Executive and copies of those comments have been e-mailed to members. The Subordinate Legislation Committee seems to be quite happy with the Executive's response. Do we agree to make no recommendation in relation to the instrument?

Members indicated agreement.


Feeding Stuffs<br />(Miscellaneous Amendments) (Scotland) Regulations 2003 (SSI 2003/277)

The Convener:

No comments from members have been received on this instrument. The Subordinate Legislation Committee had no comments to make and no motion to annul has been lodged. Do members agree to make no recommendations in relation to this instrument?

Members indicated agreement.
