Instruments Not Laid Before the Parliament


Children (Scotland) Act 1995 (Commencement No 4) Order 2001<br />(SSI 2001/475)

No points arise on the order because another commencement order will be made to correct a defect that the committee pointed out to the Executive.


Act of Adjournal (Criminal Procedural Rules Amendment) (Convention Rights (Compliance) (Scotland) Act 2001)<br />(SSI 2001/479)<br />Police Act 1997 (Commencement No 8) (Scotland) Order 2001 (SSI 2001/482)

No points arise on the instruments.


Act of Adjournal (Criminal Procedural Rules Amendment No 2) (Terrorism Act 2000 and Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001) 2001 (SSI 2001/486)<br />Act of Sederunt (Rules of the Court of Session Amendment No 6) (Terrorism Act 2000) 2001 (SSI 2001/494)

The Convener:

I still do not know what an act of sederunt is—I really must find out about them. Gordon, do you know about acts of sederunt? I know that we are talking about the Terrorism Act 2000. [Interruption.]

I am sorry—I seem to have omitted to mention the act of adjournal. No, I think that I did mention it. Did I not?

The legal secretary of the Lord President has written us a letter, correcting a mistake in the act of adjournal.

Yes, the mistake has been corrected. I forgot to mention that because I was so excited by the act of sederunt, on which no points have been noted.

Does the clerk wish to give the committee any information about next week's meeting?

Alasdair Rankin (Clerk):

It is likely that there will be three bills on next week's agenda, including the Land Reform (Scotland) Bill, which has many subordinate legislation provisions. As a result, it will be a full meeting with a full legal briefing beforehand.

There goes the legal adviser's weekend.

And we will start on time next week. Thank you, everyone.

Meeting closed at 11:57.
