Knife Dealer’s Licence (Miscellaneous) (Scotland) Order 2010 (SSI 2010/311)
Are we content with the explanation provided by the Scottish Government for the breach of the 21-day rule between the laying of this order and the coming into force of the provisions—apart from articles 2(3) and 3, which comply with the rule?
Do we agree to report that the meaning of articles 2(2)(b) and 2(3)(b) could be clearer in relation to the extent to which persons are to be treated as “qualified to teach” archery and a water sport, respectively?

Do we agree to the recommendation?
