Explanatory note

These Regulations give effect in Scotland to the European Union Framework Decision on mutual recognition of decisions on supervision measures as an alternative to provisional detention. In Scots law terms, supervision measures as an alternative to provisional detention means pre-trial bail. Schedule 1 deals with cases where a Scottish court requests that another EU member State monitor bail conditions imposed in Scotland while the accused person subject to the conditions is in the other State’s territory. Conversely, Schedule 2 deals with cases where another EU member State requests that a person’s compliance with supervision measures imposed in that other State is monitored while the person is in Scotland.

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.
