Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) <br />(West Coast) (No 17) (Scotland) Order 2005 (SSI 2005/585)

The Convener:

Item 2 is subordinate legislation. The committee is asked to consider three affirmative instruments relating to amnesic and paralytic shellfish poisoning. I welcome the Deputy Minister for Health and Community Care and Chester Wood.

As indicated in the papers, the Subordinate Legislation Committee previously considered the orders and has no comments on the first two. It considered the third order this morning and I am advised by the clerk that it had no comment to make on that, either. Does any member wish to seek clarification on the instruments from the deputy minister?

Members:

No.

Does any member wish to debate the instruments?

Members:

No.

Does any member object to a single question being put on the motions?

Members:

No.

I invite the minister to move motions S2M-3587, S2M-3588 and S2M-3621 en bloc.

Motions moved,

That the Health Committee recommends that the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (West Coast) (No. 15) (Scotland) Order 2005 (SSI 2005/575) be approved.

That the Health Committee recommends that the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (West Coast) (No. 16) (Scotland) Order 2005 (SSI 2005/579) be approved.

That the Health Committee recommends that the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (West Coast) (No. 17) (Scotland) Order 2005 (SSI 2005/585) be approved.—[Lewis Macdonald.]

Common Services Agency (Membership and Procedure) Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 2005 (SSI 2005/550)

The Convener:

We come to item 3. The committee is asked to consider three negative instruments as listed on the agenda. The Subordinate Legislation Committee has considered all the regulations and has comments to make on SS1 2005/542 but not on SSI 2005/544 and SSI 2005/550. No comments from members have been received and no motions to annul have been lodged in relation to any of the regulations. Are we agreed that the committee does not wish to make any recommendation in relation to SSI 2005/542, SSI 2005/544 and SSI 2005/550?

Members indicated agreement.

Thank you, minister. That bit of your duties is completed.
