Textual Amendments

F4S. 110: by Abusive Behaviour and Sexual Harm (Scotland) Act 2016 (asp 22), ss. 39(1)(b), 45(2)(3) (with s. 44); S.S.I. 2023/51, reg. 2 (with reg. 3), it is provided (S.) (31.3.2023) that s. 110 is repealed. [Editorial note: the purported repeal cannot be applied because the affected provision extends to Northern Ireland only since 8.3.2015 and no longer extends to Scotland.]
