Alcohol etc (Scotland) Bill: After Stage 1
The Convener (Jamie Stone)
I welcome everyone to the 20th meeting in 2010 of the Subordinate Legislation Committee. There are no apologies, so we have a full house, which is terrific. I ask everyone to turn off mobiles and BlackBerrys.
We have received the Government’s response to our stage 1 report on the delegated powers in the Alcohol etc (Scotland) Bill. Do members wish to make any comments?
Helen Eadie (Dunfermline East) (Lab)
I suppose that we will be revisiting the bill.
I have no doubt about that whatever—it is a racing certainty.
We are told that stage 2 consideration will start after the summer recess.
Are members content to note the response as set out in the paper from the clerk, although we are not ruling anything out in the months to come?
Members indicated agreement.
