Crime and Courts Bill: Legislative Consent Memorandum
The next item of business is consideration of motion S4M-03514, in the name of Kenny MacAskill, on the Crime and Courts Bill, which is United Kingdom legislation.
Motion moved,
That the Parliament agrees that the relevant provisions of the Crime and Courts Bill, introduced in the House of Lords on 10 May 2012, relating to the establishment of the National Crime Agency, for a new drug-driving offence and to allow those detained in Scotland by immigration officers to be able to access legal advice on the same terms as those detained by police officers, so far as these matters fall within the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament or alter the executive competence of the Scottish Ministers, should be considered by the UK Parliament.—[Kenny MacAskill.]
The question on the motion will be put at decision time.
