Instruments Not Laid <br />Before the Parliament
Act of Sederunt (Rules of the Court of Session Amendment) (Fees of Solicitors, Shorthand Writers and Witnesses) 2002 (SSI 2002/301)
There is a wee typo, so we will send a polite letter pointing it out.
Housing (Scotland) Act 2001 (Commencement No 5, Transitional Provisions and Savings) Order 2002 <br />(SSI 2002/321)
No points arise on the order.
Right to Purchase (Application Form) (Scotland) Order 2002 (SSI 2002/322)
No points arise on the order.
There is a wee typo in the footnote.
Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 (Commencement No 6) (Scotland) Order 2002 (SSI 2002/337)
Given the terms of section 17(2) of the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998, the parent act, it is questionable why the order has been made in the form of a statutory instrument. The order partially implements a European directive and a similar order has been made in respect of England, Wales and Northern Ireland—perhaps that is the answer. On the other hand, a document is only a statutory instrument if the enabling act says that it is and in this case the enabling act does not say that. We should ask the Executive if it can explain to us why it has chosen the form of a statutory instrument. Is that agreed?
Act of Sederunt (Lands Valuation Appeal Court) 2002 (SSI 2002/340)
No points arise on the act of sederunt.
Scottish Qualifications Authority Act 2002 (Commencement No 1) Order 2002<br />(SSI 2002/355)
No points arise on the order.
Education (Disability Strategies and Pupils' Educational Records) (Scotland) Act 2002 (Commencement) Order 2002<br />(SSI 2002/367)
No points arise on the order.
Disease Control (Interim Measures) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2002 <br />(SSI 2002/369)
The order is very important. It removes camelids and elephants from the movement control provisions.
What is a camelid?
I think that it is a dromedary or something.
The order also says that we do not have to wear wellies any more, as long as we have robust footwear.
Does that apply to camelids or elephants?
Except if one meets a bull.
That order was just going to go by on the nod.
Yes it was, convener.
The instrument appears to be in order—provided we bring our wellies.
Act of Adjournal (Criminal Appeals) 2002 (SSI 2002/387)
No points arise on the act of adjournal.
