One hundred and twenty-nine public bodies have had codes of conduct approved under the Ethical Standards in Public Life etc. (Scotland) Act 2000, out of a total of 131 covered by the act at present. Two bodies have yet to have codes approved. There are a number of outstanding issues surrounding the production of codes for the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission and the Parole Board for Scotland. These issues are being taken forward by the Executive in consultation with the individual bodies.
