Item 4 is consideration of a legislative consent memorandum. Members will find in their papers the Scottish Government’s memorandum, a draft of the motion and an explanation of the motion. The committee could take evidence on the bill, but we might take the view that the effect of the proposed legislation to be passed by the United Kingdom Parliament is so minor that we do not need to carry out further scrutiny and we can simply recommend to the Parliament that the motion be agreed to.
