Detailed Provisions

Part 6: Reporting on wider redress actions

Section 100: Power of the Scottish Ministers to require production of report

296.Where an organisation has failed to fulfil the reporting requirements set out in section 99 by the relevant deadline, the Scottish Ministers are able to direct that organisation to report. The Scottish Ministers may also direct an organisation to report where an application for a redress payment involving that organisation results in an offer of a redress payment, and that organisation is not otherwise under a duty to report.

297.In either case, the Scottish Ministers may require the person to prepare a redress report and send it to the Scottish Ministers before the end of the period of three months beginning with the date the direction was given, or within such longer period as is specified in the direction by the Scottish Ministers.

298.The Scottish Ministers may revise or revoke a reporting direction. If the Scottish Minsters consider that an organisation has failed to comply with a reporting direction, they may publish the fact of the organisation’s failure to comply.
