This afternoon our Convener Stuart McMillan MSP will lead a debate on the Committee's conclusions and recommendations in its report on the use of Framework Legislation and Henry VIII powers, following a recent inquiry. View the report, published on 24 March: ow.ly/hSwm50VGWNl

"In delegating power @scotparl is giving away a power to create law...achieving the right balance is an important undertaking and we are glad to see this significance is understood by many colleagues and stakeholders." Stuart McMillan MSP opens the debate on Framework Legislation.

"The report sets out the steps supported by the Committee to strengthen scrutiny of delegated legislation... [such as] use of super-affirmative procedures and full justification from Scottish Government for a framework approach." Stuart McMillan MSP, Convener Debate 👉 ow.ly/p9Lo50VHeqU
