Item 4 is our consideration of the powers to make subordinate legislation that are conferred on the Scottish ministers under the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation. We will focus our consideration on clause 65, on the provision of services by the proposed young people's learning agency for England, and on clause 103, on the provision of services by the proposed skills funding agency. Are members content that the delegation of powers under clauses 65 and 103, and the order-making provision under clause 248, are acceptable and that negative procedure provides the appropriate level of scrutiny in this case?
