Subordinate Legislation
Scottish Tribunals (Eligibility for Appointment) Amendment Regulations 2017 (SSI 2017/274)
Agenda item 3 is consideration of three negative instruments. I refer members to paper J/S5/17/29/3, which is a note by the clerk.
If members have no comments to make on the first instrument, is the committee agreed that it does not want to make any recommendation in relation to it?
Members indicated agreement.
Sexual Offences Act 2003 (Prescribed Police Stations) (Scotland) Regulations 2017 (SSI 2017/285)
May I seek clarification on this instrument? It mentions many police stations—89 prescribed police stations are listed—and I wonder whether any of them are under threat of closure. It would be useful if we could find that out.
If there are no other comments, is the committee agreed that it does not want to make any recommendation in relation to this instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003 (Rural Housing Bodies) Amendment (No 2) Order 2017 (SSI 2017/301)
Do members have any comments on the final instrument?
The list of rural registered social landlords does not include ACHA—the Argyll Community Housing Association. It does include Dunbritton, but there are two in my area.
This list gives them with their full names.
Oh sorry, I misread that. John Finnie is absolutely right.
Thank you for that clarification, Mr Finnie. Is the committee therefore agreed that it does not wish to make any recommendation in relation to this instrument?
Members indicated agreement.
