Subordinate Legislation Committee, 05 Sep 2000

Meeting date: Tuesday, September 5, 2000


Contents


Standards in Scotland's Schools etc Act 2000 (Commencement No 2 and Transitional Provisions) Order 2000 (SSI 2000/298)

The Convener:

We must ask the Executive why it was not possible to combine these provisions relating to the Standards in Scotland's Schools etc Act 2000 with the commencement no 1 order—this is the second commencement order in less than one month. The Executive appears to be creating needless work for itself and for us. Bearing in mind paragraph 2.38 of "Statutory Instrument Practice", why were the orders not dealt with simultaneously?

That brings our meeting to an end. Thank you all.

Meeting closed at 11:55.
