Section 42 of the 2014 Act requires the Scottish Ministers to note in the register of letting agents if a person’s entry in it or a renewal of the person’s entry has been refused, and if a person has been removed from the register. Section 42 of the 2025 Act amends section 42 of the 2014 Act so that any such note must remain on the register for 3 years (instead of 12 months).
