European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018
Public Procurement etc (Scotland) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Amendment (No 2) Regulations 2019 (SSI 2019/414)
Agenda item 3 is on the Public Procurement etc (Scotland) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Amendment (No 2) Regulations 2019, which are made under the powers conferred on devolved authorities in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
Under the protocol between the Scottish Parliament and the Scottish Government, the committee is required to consider whether the procedure attached to the instrument is appropriate or should be changed. The Scottish ministers have suggested that the instrument, which is subject to the negative procedure, should be categorised as of low significance, as the amendments that it makes are technical and do not amount to a policy change. Is the committee content that instrument be subject to the negative procedure?
Members indicated agreement.
