Provision in this regard is now made by section 74 of the Act, which enables actions for aliment of small amounts to be made by simple procedure.
Text created by the Scottish Government to explain what the Act sets out to achieve and to make the Act accessible to readers who are not legally qualified. Explanatory Notes were introduced in 1999 and accompany all Acts of the Scottish Parliament except those which result from Budget Bills.
