Subordinate Legislation

Energy Performance of Buildings (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2017 (SSI 2017/225)

Under agenda item 2, the committee will consider Scottish statutory instrument 2017/225. The instrument is subject to negative procedure, which means that its provisions will come into force unless the Parliament votes on a motion to annul the instrument.

The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the instrument at its meeting on 5 September 2017 and determined that it did not need to draw it to the attention of Parliament on any grounds within its remit. No motion to annul the instrument has been lodged. As members have no comments on the instrument, I invite them to agree that the committee does not wish to make any recommendation in relation to the instrument. Are we agreed?

Members indicated agreement.

We move to agenda item 3, the consideration of evidence, which we will take in private.
