Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors (Professional Conduct) (Amendment) Rules 2001 Approval (Scotland) Order 2001 (SSI 2001/54)
A question of style and drafting arose. To be fair to the Executive, the order was drafted by the UK Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting, which is outwith the Executive's control, but perhaps we should draw the question to the Executive's attention. The Executive can draw it to the attention of those involved in drafting.
It appears that there are several related matters concerning such orders that are drafted by outside sources. If we are to provide directions and steer to the Executive, it should be taken as read that other organisations that do their own drafting or through private clubs of solicitors should abide by the same rules and guidance. Are we agreed?
Members indicated agreement.
