Wildlife and Natural Environment (Scotland) Bill: Financial Memorandum

The Convener

Item 4 is to consider our approach to the scrutiny of the financial memorandum to the Wildlife and Natural Environment (Scotland) Bill. Members will see from the clerk’s note that level 1 scrutiny is suggested. Are members content with that approach and with the suggestions for written evidence as set out in the clerk’s paper?

Members indicated agreement.

Linda Fabiani

I suggest that we also seek evidence from Scottish Natural Heritage because it now incorporates the Deer Commission for Scotland and, in some cases, it might have a different view from that of the Scottish Gamekeepers Association.

The Convener

Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

That is fine. We will seek evidence from SNH.

As previously agreed, we move into private session to consider our report on the financial memorandum to the Damages (Scotland) Bill.

15:45 Meeting continued in private until 15:46.
