Executive Responses


Adults with Incapacity <br />(Medical Treatment Certificates) (Scotland) Regulations 2002 (SSI 2002/208)

The Convener:

There is a slight doubt about the vires of the regulations—it is not a huge doubt. The committee might be inclined to accept the Executive's position, although we do not necessarily agree with the Executive that it is a necessary inference that all regulations made under the Adults with Incapacity Act 2000, except where expressly stated otherwise, are to be made by Scottish ministers. However, it does seem that that inference would not cause any great problems. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
