Ivory Prohibitions (Exemptions) (Process and Procedure) Regulations 2021
Our third item of business is consideration of a notification from the Scottish ministers for consent to the regulations. I refer members to committee paper 3. Under the protocol between the Scottish Parliament and the Scottish Government, the consent notification has been categorised as type 1, which means that the Scottish Parliament’s agreement is sought before the Scottish Government gives consent to the UK Government making secondary legislation in devolved competence.
Since members have no comments on the consent notification, is the committee content that the provisions that are set out in the notification should be included in the proposed UK SI?
Members indicated agreement.
Is the committee content to delegate authority to me to sign off a letter to the Scottish Government to inform it of our decision?
Members indicated agreement.
In a slight change to the agenda, we now move into private session and will resume in public with agenda item 4.
