Debate
Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction BillContribution
13: Clause 18, page 16, line 10, leave out from “implementing” to “and” in line 12 and insert “any Article 38 standards or guidelines,”
Member's explanatory statement
This amendment is consequential on my amendment inserting a new clause after clause 17, which would mean that the power conferred on Scottish Ministers by clause 18 can be limited to implementing Article 38 standards or guidelines (as with the power conferred on the Secretary of State by clause 16(1)).
