SHERIFF COURT
By sections 25 to 29 of the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Scotland) Act 1990, any professional or other body may, for the purpose of enabling any of their members who is a natural person to acquire rights to conduct litigation or rights of audience, make an application for that purpose to the Lord President of the Court of Session and the Scottish Ministers. Such an application must include a draft scheme, which the Lord President and the Scottish Ministers may approve. Where the Lord President and the Scottish Ministers approve such a scheme, section 26(6)(a) of the 1990 Act requires the Lord President to grant the application. Section 27(1) of the 1990 Act provides that where such an application has been granted any member of the body concerned who is qualified under the scheme and who appears to the body to be a fit and proper person has the rights to conduct litigation or rights of audience to which that qualification entitles him or her.
