Subordinate Legislation


Act of Sederunt (Fees of Messengers-at-Arms and Sheriff Officers) (Amendment) 2024 (SSI 2024/41)

Our second agenda item is consideration of a negative Scottish statutory instrument. I refer members to paper 1.

Do any members have comments on the instrument?

Marie McNair

The letter from Alan McIntosh contains interesting suggestions. The reduction in sheriff officer fees sounds quite attractive to me. Obviously, it is not feasible for us to do anything about that just now, but could we at least pass on the letter to the appropriate ministers so that it is not lost?

The Convener

That is a reasonable request. As no member has other comments to make, does the committee agree that we will do that?

Members indicated agreement.
