Public Services Reform (Recovery of Expenses in respect of Inspection of Independent Further Education Colleges and English Language Schools) (Scotland) Order 2012 and Draft Explanatory Document (SG 2011/237)
We move to item 6. Does the committee agree to report to Parliament that the draft explanatory document could explain more clearly why article 2 will remove an administrative inconvenience and obstacle to the efficiency, productivity or profitability of the further education establishments that are affected by the order—rather than the effects of the order on Education Scotland—and that paragraph 27 of the draft explanatory document could explain in a clearer way the grounds on which the Scottish ministers consider that the policy objective that it is intended will be secured by the provision could not be satisfactorily secured by non-legislative means, rather than only stating those means?
