Final provisions

Section 27: Commencement

134.This section provides that sections 26 and 28 (along with this section itself) come into force on the day after Royal Assent. All other provisions are to come into force on a day appointed by regulations made by the Scottish Ministers. These regulations may make transitional, transitory or saving provision related to commencement and may make different provision for different purposes. These regulations would require to be laid before the Parliament under section 30 of the Interpretation and Legislative Reform (Scotland) Act 2010, but they are not otherwise subject to any Parliamentary procedure.
