EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Act of Sederunt)

This Act of Sederunt amends the Rules of the Court of Session 1994 to set out when the Court of Session sits.

It provides for a new Chapter 10 on court sittings. New rule 10.3 lists the public holidays, vacation periods and vacation sitting days of the Court up to the end of 2020. These dates (other than those beyond September 2020) were previously set out in Direction No.1 of 2016 made under Chapter 10. The Court shall sit throughout the year except during two brief vacation periods at Christmas and Easter. During vacation Court business shall be dealt with either by the vacation judge or, where necessary, a Division of the Inner House.

Consequential amendments to the Rules of the Court of Session 1994 are made by paragraph 3.
