Scottish Secure Tenancies (Exceptions) Amendment Regulations 2002<br />(SSI 2002/434)<br />Housing (Scotland) Act 2001<br />(Housing Support Services) Regulations 2002 (SSI 2002/444)

The committee has before it two negative statutory instruments, which means that the Parliament has the power to annul the orders by resolution within 40 days of each being laid. We are required to report to the Parliament on the Scottish Secure Tenancies (Exceptions) Amendment Regulations 2002 by 4 November and on the Housing (Scotland) Act 2001 (Housing Support Services) Regulations 2002 by 11 November.

At its meetings on 1 October and 8 October, the Subordinate Legislation Committee determined that the Parliament's attention need not be drawn to the instruments. Furthermore, no motions to annul have been lodged. Members should have the relevant extract from the Subordinate Legislation Committee's 36th and 37th reports in 2002. If members have no comments, I ask the committee whether it agrees that it has no recommendations to make on the two instruments. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

I suspend the meeting for five minutes.

Meeting suspended.
