Section 66 – Application of enactments

215.The effect of this section is to enable the Scottish Ministers, by regulations, to modify the application of any enactment so far as they consider is necessary or expedient for the purposes of making or giving effect to Tribunal Rules. Such regulations may provide for the application of rules of court made by the Court of Session by act of sederunt in relation to the Scottish Tribunals. In so doing, the regulations may make provision so that the process for making the act of sederunt should follow the procedure for making Tribunal Rules (see section 68(4)). The Lord President’s approval is required before making any such regulations.
