Instruments Not Laid Before the Parliament


Act of Adjournal (Criminal Procedure Rules Amendment) (Proceeds of Crime Act 2002) 2003 (SSI 2003/120)

There is a bit of confusion about the numbering around chapter 37AA and chapter 37. With great respect to the court and all the people involved therein, we should draw that to their attention.

There appears to be an error in section 2(2), to do with the revocation of chapter 37. We should ask the Executive to clarify that.

I would not be particularly happy if no rules of court governed the seizure of proceeds of crime.

So a gap would be left—

That we do not want the bad guys to go through.

That is right. We will ask those questions.


Adoption (Intercountry Aspects) Act 1999 (Commencement No 10) (Scotland) Order 2003 (SSI 2003/121)

No points arise on the order.


Local Government in Scotland Act 2003 (Commencement No 1) Order 2003<br />(SSI 2003/134)

No points have been identified.

Apart from the fact that the order seems to be an example of exquisite drafting.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, of course, and we know that you look at these things with great interest.


Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000 (Commencement No 3) Order 2003<br />(SSI 2003/136).

No points have been identified in relation to the order.
