Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee

Meeting date: Tuesday, January 11, 2022


Contents


European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018


Pesticides (Revocation) (EU Exit) Regulations 2022

The Convener

The committee’s final agenda item is consideration of a proposal by the Scottish Government to consent to the United Kingdom Government legislating on devolved matters using powers under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. This relates to a proposed UK statutory instrument, the pesticides (revocation) (EU exit) regulations 2022. The notification is a type 1 consent notification. The committee’s role in relation to type 1 notifications is to decide whether it agrees with the Scottish Government’s proposal to consent to the UK Government making regulations within devolved competence. I refer members to paper 3 and to the private legal and policy briefing that members received with their papers for the meeting.

The question for the committee now is whether we agree with the Scottish Government that the environmental provisions set out in the notification should be included in the UK SI. Before I put that question to the committee, however, does anyone have any questions?

There being none, do we agree with the Scottish Government that the environmental provisions set out in the notification should be included in the UK SI?

Members indicated agreement.

That is agreed. The committee will write to the Scottish Government accordingly.

13:01 Meeting continued in private until 13:07.
