Written Question · S2W-15349 · Session 2
Whether it intends to (a) bring into force or (b) repeal section 24 of the Environment Act 1995.
The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether it intends to (a) bring into force or (b) repeal section 24 of the Environment Act 1995.
The answer
The Water Environment and Water Services (Scotland) Act 2003 and the forthcoming Controlled Activities Regulations contain provisions that will supersede section 24 of the Environment Act 1995. The Executive therefore intends to lay an Order before Parliament which, among other things, will repeal section 24 with effect from 1 April 2006.
