Instruments Not Laid Before <br />the Parliament
Standards in Scotland's Schools etc Act 2000 (Commencement No 8 and Savings) Order 2006 (SSI 2006/232)
No points arise on the order.
Avian Influenza (H5N1 in Wild Birds) (Scotland) Amendment Order 2006<br />(SSI 2006/237)
Members will recall that the committee made a number of comments on the previous order and that, as a result, an amending order was to be laid; that is the order that we have before us. However, a number of points have arisen in relation to the order. They appear in the legal brief—
Are they the ones that are listed on page 55?
Yes.
Just ask all the questions on the list.
Do we agree to ask the Executive questions (a) to (f)?
We can ask about a number of minor points as well.
Perhaps our legal advisers could tell us whether there are more problems with the amended order than there were with the original order.
I think that there are fewer, but it is a close-run thing.
We look forward to the next one.
Last time, we said that this was a particularly sensitive area and that we therefore hoped that the Executive would get it right.
Better luck next time.
Yes.
Meeting continued in private until 12:20.
