Explanatory Notes

Scottish Register of Tartans Act 2008

2008 asp 7

13 November 2008

Introduction

1.These Explanatory Notes have been prepared by the Scottish Government on behalf of Jamie McGrigor MSP, the member in charge of the Bill for the Act. They have been prepared in order to assist the reader of the Act and to help inform debate on it. They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by the Parliament.

2.The Notes should be read in conjunction with the Act. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section, or a part of a section, does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
