Curtailing brutal powers of the Law Society of Scotland

No one except the victims of the Scottish legal system
knows how important this small piece of legislation
will be in curtailing the brutality of the MONOPOLY
powers of a corrupt Law Society of Scotland .Every
victim of this system awaits this being enacted and
who have FOUGHT endlessly to EXPOSE the repercussions
of the failure to enact that legislation.

The Presiding Officer: You can let that question go,
First Minister, as it was really a statement.

Margo MacDonald (Lothians) (Ind): I regret to say that
I am not going to get the First Minister out of jail.
My question derives from a ruling by the Court of
Session this week that the Scottish information
commissioner should have the internal papers that
relate to the commencement of sections 25 to 29 of the
Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Scotland) Act
1990. My reason for raising the issue is that, in
September 2005, I was given an assurance by the then
Minister for Justice that the commencement would come
along shortly, and the next Minister for Justice
repeated that in January of last year, when I was told
that the commencement was imminent. When will the
measures be commenced? If that will not happen as soon
as possible, why not, and might that have anything to
do with the ruling in the Court of Session? If not,
why are we spending so much money on keeping internal
papers on the matter from people who wish to know
about it?

The First Minister: I am happy to spell that out to
Margo MacDonald in some detail in writing.
[Interruption.]

If members would stop shouting and listen, they would
hear what I hope will be a constructive answer. My
understanding is that the original provisions in the
act that was the subject of the court ruling this week
were updated by provisions in an act recently passed
by this Parliament. My understanding is that the
provisions of that act will be enacted as of April
this year-2007. I am happy to clarify all that in
writing to Margo MacDonald, but that is my
understanding of the position.
