Scottish Fiscal Commission (Modification of Functions) Regulations 2018 [Draft]
The Cabinet Secretary for Finance and the Constitution and Aidan Grisewood have remained for item 3. Before we consider whether to agree to the motion on the regulations, do you want to make an opening statement, cabinet secretary?
If the committee is informed of what we seek approval for, I do not need to make a statement.
The appropriate paperwork has been put in front of us and we have had the chance to read it. As no member has a question to put to the cabinet secretary, we move to item 4, which is consideration of motion S5M-12320.
Motion moved,
That the Finance and Constitution Committee recommends that the Scottish Fiscal Commission (Modification of Functions) Regulations 2018 [draft] be approved.—[Derek Mackay]
Motion agreed to.
In the coming days, we will publish a short report to Parliament setting out our decision on the instrument. I thank the cabinet secretary and his official for attending this morning.
