Subordinate Legislation
Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars (Scotland) Regulations 2013 (SSI 2013/305)
Good morning and welcome to the 33rd meeting in 2013 of the Health and Sport Committee. As usual, I remind everyone to switch off mobile phones, BlackBerrys and other wireless devices, which can interfere with our sound system. Members of the public might notice that members and officials are using iPads and other tablet devices instead of hard copies for our papers.
We have again received apologies from Richard Simpson. Malcolm Chisholm is with us as the Labour Party substitute.
Before we move on to our main item of business, we must consider a Scottish statutory instrument, which is subject to the negative procedure. No motion to annul the regulations has been lodged, but the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee drew the Parliament’s attention to the instrument on the ground that it broke the 28-day rule. The details are in members’ papers, as members will be aware.
If members have no comments, do we agree to make no recommendation on the instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
Thank you.
