The National Trust for Scotland (Governance etc.) Act 2013

Introduction

1.These Explanatory Notes have been prepared by Turcan Connell on behalf of the promoter, The National Trust for Scotland for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty (also known as The National Trust for Scotland), in order to assist the reader of The National Trust for Scotland (Governance etc.) Act and to help inform debate on it. They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by the Parliament.

2.The Notes should be read in conjunction with the Act. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or schedule, or a part of a section or schedule, does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
