Rural Affairs and Environment Committee, 03 Oct 2007

Meeting date: Wednesday, October 3, 2007

Subordinate Legislation


Surface Waters (Shellfish) (Classification) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2007 (SSI 2007/427)<br />Import and Export Restrictions<br />(Foot-and-Mouth Disease) (Scotland) (No 3) Regulations 2007 (SSI 2007/428)

Item 3 is subordinate legislation—there are two negative instruments for consideration. No member has raised any concerns about them and no motion to annul has been lodged, which is extraordinary.

What about Mike Rumbles? Give him a second.

The Convener:

Does any member have any points that they wish to make in respect of the sets of regulations? We understand that the Subordinate Legislation Committee raised some issues in correspondence, but they are technical rather than policy issues. It might be that that committee will report on them in due course, but they do not affect the substance of the regulations.

Should I invite the Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs and the Environment or his officials to attend the committee to discuss the instruments? Should I write to anybody?

Members:

No.

We will move on. Do we agree to make no recommendation on the instruments?

Members indicated agreement.
