The question

To ask the Scottish Executive why the Invergarry-Kyle of Lochalsh A87 Extension (Skye Bridge Crossing) Toll Order (SI 1992/1501) was classified as a "local and private non-print" with its effect described as "none".

Certification as a local instrument reflected the fact that the impact of the 1992 Toll Order was confined to the Skye Bridge crossing. The Appeal Court, High Court of Justiciary, in its decision dated 16 December 1999, rejected the submission that the Order required to be printed and sold in terms of the relevant legislation. Public notice was given of both the proposal to make, and the making of, the Order, and of the general effect of the Order.
