Part 10 of the Bill - Miscellaneous
In March 2009 shortly after the introduction of this Bill, the Scottish Government indicated they would bring forward a separate item of legislation containing a number of alcohol related measures including the provisions currently in section 129 of this Bill (sale of alcohol to persons under 21 etc.) and section 140 of this Bill (licensed premises: social responsibility levy). As a result, we intend to seek to remove section 129 and section 140 from this Bill at Stage 2.
The remaining sections in Part 10 of the Bill includes provisions tidying up the law and improving the operation of courts.
