 Welcome members to the 17th meeting in 2018 of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. Agender item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. It is proposed that we take items 4, 5 and 6 in private. These are our approach to the delegated powers provisions in the age of criminal responsibility Scotland bill. Further consideration of the delegated powers provisions in the management of offender Scotland bill and the delegated powers provisions in the island Scotland bill after stage 2. Does the committee agree to take these items in private? Agender item 2 is consideration of an instrument subject to the affirmative procedure. No points have been raised on the draft Scottish Fiscal Commission Modification of Functions Regulations 2018. Is the committee content with this instrument? Agender item 3 is consideration of instrument subject to negative procedure. We've got one and that's the local government pension scheme Scotland Regulations 2018. So I'm going to ask if you want to draw the instrument to the attention of the parliament on the following reporting grounds. There's several. I'll read them out. On the general reporting ground in respect of the following errors, in regulation 1 there's an inconsistency. In so far as regulation 32 is stated to apply retrospectively from the 1st of April 2015, whereas similar provision made in regulation 16.6 is not. Regulation 3.7.D cross refers to Regulation 89, forfeiture of pension rights after conviction for employment-related offences, which should be a cross-reference to Regulation 86. In Regulation 22.10.B, the reference to Regulation 2.3 of the transfer of undertakings protection of employment regulations 2006 should be to Regulation 3 of those regulations. Regulation 43.11 provides that additional pension purchased under Regulation 16 is not excluded for the purposes of paragraph 4C if certain circumstances apply. However, reference should also be made to paragraphs 5C, 9C and 10C. Regulation 45.4E should refer to Regulation 17.6BI rather than Regulation 17.7BI. On the reporting ground H, on the basis that it could be clearer what the expression SDS scheme means in regulation 22L, does the committee wish to comment that although taken individually the majority of the errors were capable of rectification by correction slip taken together, it's disappointing that the Scottish Government intends to rectify those errors by correction slip. You can look back on it. Does the committee wish to call on the Scottish Government to rectify the error in 43.11 by mending instrument rather than correction slip on the basis that the error is not patent in nature? No points have been raised on SSI 2018. 1.42 is the committee content with this instrument. I'll move the meeting into private.
