Public Body Consent Memorandum

Public Bodies (Office of Fair Trading Transfer of Consumer Advice Scheme Function and Modification of Enforcement Functions) Order 2013

Agenda item 4 is consideration of a draft United Kingdom Government order under section 1 of the UK Public Bodies Act 2011.

As members will recall, the consent of the Scottish Parliament is required to make an order under part 1 of the Public Bodies Act 2011, where such an order makes provision that would be within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament.

The Subordinate Legislation Committee considers and reports on such orders under the same grounds as instruments laid before the Parliament. No points have been raised by the legal advisers on the order.

Is the committee content with the order?

Members indicated agreement.

We move to agenda item 5, which we will take in private.

10:34 Meeting continued in private until 11:35.
