Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee

Meeting date: Tuesday, December 16, 2014

Public Bodies Act Consent Memorandum


Public Bodies (Abolition of the Home Grown Timber Advisory Committee) Order 2015 [Draft]

The Convener

Agenda item 8 is consideration of a United Kingdom Government order under the UK Public Bodies Act 2011. The Scottish Parliament’s consent 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 Scottish Parliament’s legislative competence, and the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considers and reports on such orders on the same grounds as instruments laid before the Parliament.

No points have been raised by the legal advisers on the draft order, which, it is worth putting on the record, seems to do nothing other than abolish a body that is no longer in existence. Does the committee intend to report that it is content with the draft order?

Members indicated agreement.

As that completes the public agenda, we will move into private.

10:48 Meeting continued in private until 11:13.
