Instruments not laid before the Parliament


Act of Sederunt (Rules of the Court of Session Amendment No 3) (Miscellaneous) 2010 (SSI 2010/136)

The Convener

Are we content with the explanations that the Lord President’s private office has provided in respect of our questions 1 and 3? Do we agree to draw the Parliament’s attention to the instrument on the ground that a drafting error has been made, in that the cross-references in rules 97.9(1), 97.10(2)(a) and 97.12(3)(b) should be to rule 97.8, to cover a reporting officer appointed under rule 97.8(1) or 97.8(4)?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

It should be noted that the Lord President’s private office intends to correct the error when the opportunity arises—hopefully, very soon.


Act of Sederunt (Child Care and Maintenance Rules) Amendment (Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008) 2010 (SSI 2010/137)

The Convener

Do we agree to draw the Parliament’s attention to the instrument on the ground that a drafting error has been made, in that the cross-references in rules 2.51(1), 2.52(2)(a) and 2.54(3)(b) should be to rule 2.50, to cover a reporting officer appointed under rule 2.50(1) or 2.50(4)?

Members indicated agreement.

The Convener

Again, we should note that the Lord President’s private office intends to correct the error when the opportunity arises.

The Convener

Are we content with the explanations that the Lord President’s private office has provided in respect of our questions 1 and 3?

Members indicated agreement.

Housing (Scotland) Act 2006 (Commencement No 8, Transitional Provisions and Savings) Order 2010 (SSI 2010/159)
