Police Pension Scheme (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2017 (SSI 2017/387)
The regulations make amendments to the Police Pension Scheme (Scotland) Regulations 2015 (SSI 2015/142). New regulation 17A(1) of those regulations, which is inserted by regulation 6 of the regulations under consideration, should have specified “automatic enrolment date” rather than “enrolment date”, which would have attracted the definition that is set out in regulation 4.
Does the committee wish to draw the regulations to the attention of the Parliament on the general reporting ground, as they contain a drafting error?
Members indicated agreement.
Does the committee wish to note that the Scottish Government has undertaken to correct the error at the first legislative opportunity to do so?
Members indicated agreement.
