We have before us a negative instrument, the Non-Domestic Rate (Scotland) Order 2001 (SSI 2001/44). The instrument sets the non-domestic rate poundage for the financial year beginning 1 April. It was sent to committee members some time ago and no comments have been received on it. The Subordinate Legislation Committee has considered the order; an extract of its report is included in the attached papers. The Subordinate Legislation Committee did not consider that the attention of the Parliament needed to be drawn to the instrument. No motions to annul have been lodged, and no other action can be taken on the instrument. I suggest that we agree that the Local Government Committee has no recommendation to make on the Non-Domestic Rate (Scotland) Order 2001. Does the committee agree?
