Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Act of Adjournal) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
This Act of Adjournal amends the Criminal Procedure Rules 1996 (S.I. 1996/513) (“the 1996 Rules”) to make provision consequent upon the commencement of section 1 of the Criminal Justice (Scotland) Act 2003. That section amends the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 by providing for risk assessment orders and orders for lifelong restriction in respect of persons convicted of certain offences in the High Court of Justiciary. Paragraph 2(2) to (4) makes consequential amendments to Chapter 15 of the 1996 Rules which makes provision in respect of appeals. Paragraph 2(5) inserts into the 1996 Rules a new Chapter 19C which makes provision in respect of risk assessment orders. Paragraph 2(6) provides for a form of order for lifelong restriction. Paragraph 2(7) inserts new forms relating to risk assessment orders and orders for lifelong restriction into the appendix to the 1996 Rules.

What Parliament said about it
Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.
How Parliament handled it
Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
