Education (School and Placing Information) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2000 (SSI 2000/407)

The Convener:

Again, there appear to be significant problems resulting from the drafting of the regulations, such as the labelling of columns as left and right rather than numbering them, which is the standard practice. There is also a tautology—I always take an interest in those. The words omitting and substituting, which appear in regulation 2(3), do not stand well together. Regulation 3 appears to be wrongly drafted, and there are typographical errors in regulation 2(2). We should doubtless draw those points to the attention of the Executive and await its response.
