(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh (Scotland) Order of Council 2007 (“the 2007 Order”). The 2007 Order remains the principal governance order in relation to Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh (“the University”), made under section 45 of the Further and Higher Education (Scotland) Act 1992.
Articles 3 and 4 of this Order amend articles 4 and 5 of the 2007 Order so that separate provision is now made for the appointment of the Chair as a member of the governing body (“the Court”) of the University rather than for the Chair simply to be drawn from a constituent part of that membership. A new article 4(7A) of the 2007 Order continues the provision that the Chair presides at meetings of the Court and provision continues to be made in new article 5 of the 2007 Order for the Vice-Chair to be drawn from among the lay members appointed under article 4(2)(a) of the 2007 Order.
The range of lay members to be appointed under article 4(2)(a) of the 2007 Order is reduced by one to be between 11 and 15 to ensure that the maximum membership of the Court still does not exceed 24 persons.
Article 5 makes transitional provision to ensure that the serving Chair of the Court on commencement of this Order is treated as appointed under article 4(2)(za) of the 2007 Order as inserted by this Order.
