Section 28: Ministerial action following strike down declarator or incompatibility declarator
112.Section 28 sets out what the Scottish Ministers must do in the event that a strike down declarator (under section 25) or an incompatibility declarator (under section 26) is made.
113.It requires the Scottish Ministers, within 6 months of the declarator being made, to:
report publicly on what (if anything) they intend to do in response to the declarator;
seek to make a statement to the Scottish Parliament on the matter (the Scottish Ministers do not control the scheduling of business in the Scottish Parliament and so can only seek to make a statement within the 6-month period).
