(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Reporters (Conduct of Proceedings before the Sheriff) (Scotland) Regulation 1997.
The effect of the definition of “reporter” in Article 2 of those Regulations is to disqualify for the purposes of those Regulations service as a reporter prior to 1st April 1997 other than as an appointment under section 36 of the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968. These Regulations mean that being a reporter as defined by section 36(5A) of the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 between 1st April 1996 and 1st April 1997 qualifies as service.
