The Scottish Government has committed to correcting those errors by way of an amending instrument before the regulations come into force on 1 April 2023.
Does the committee wish to draw the instrument to the attention of the Parliament on reporting ground (h), on account of the fact that the meaning of rules 31 and 32 could be clearer?

Welcome to the first meeting in 2023 of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. It is good to see you all. We have received apologies from our convener, Stuart McMillan. In his place, I welcome Jenni Minto—thank you, Jenni.
Before we move to the first item on the agenda, I remind everyone to switch their mobile phones to silent.
The first item of business is a decision on whether to take agenda items 7, 8, 9 and 10 in private. Is the committee content to do that?
Members indicated agreement.

The clerks are willing and able to put all this together, so could your officials put together some pointers and send them to us? You mentioned that it is not just this committee but other committees that are also considering such issues. If we could have some direction to satisfy the concerns of the members of this committee, that would be helpful.
