Instruments Not Laid Before <br />the Parliament
Act of Sederunt (Summary Applications, Statutory Applications and Appeals etc Rules) Amendment (Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005) 2008 (SSI 2008/9)
Are members content to ask the Scottish Government to explain the two points raised in the summary of recommendations?
Members will note from the annex to the summary of recommendations that some minor points arise on the draft Valuation and Rating (Exempted Classes) (Scotland) Order 2008, as well as on SSI 2008/7 and SSI 2008/9. We will raise those points informally. Are members content with that?
I would like to clarify one point. On the first instrument that we considered—the draft Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board Order 2007—our ground for reporting the order will not be the validity of the order but the fact that there appears to be an unusual or unexpected use of the powers conferred by the parent statute.
In fairness to the clerk, I should have pointed that out but failed to do so.
Meeting continued in private until 14:54.
