Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Act of Sederunt)
This Act of Sederunt amends the Rules of the Court of Session 1994 (S.I. 1994/1443) in consequence of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”). In particular, it makes changes to the rules as a result of the reduction in the separation periods for divorce and the amendments made to the Protection of Abuse (Scotland) Act 2005 in respect of the attachment of powers of arrest to matrimonial interdicts and relevant interdicts under the Civil Partnership Act 2004. It also makes provision for applications under sections 28 and 29 of the 2006 Act for orders for financial provision where cohabitation ends otherwise than by death and on intestacy. Consequential changes are also made to the forms set out in the appendix to the rules.
