Housing (Amendment) (Scotland) Act 2018

Chapter 2 of Part 10 of the 2010 Act

108.The amendments made to Part 8 of the 2010 Act make Chapter 2 of Part 10 redundant. Section 123 of the 2010 Act applies Chapter 1 of Part 10 to the restructuring of registered societies under section 97 and to the restructuring of companies under section 101. The substantive provisions of section 123 are now, as a result of the amendments in section 6(3), (4), (8) and (9) of the Act, in Part 8 of the 2010 Act.

109.Section 124 of the 2010 Act currently provides that any failure by the Regulator or an RSL to comply with a provision of Chapter 1 of Part 10 (as applied by section 123) does not invalidate the Regulator’s consent to the restructuring. Regulator’s consent will no longer be required. And the consequences for a failure by the RSL will be dealt with by section 97(2) and (3) and section 101(2) and (3) (as amended). So section 124 is no longer necessary.

110.Accordingly section 6(15) repeals Chapter 2 of Part 10.
