Consultation on draft regulations transferring the Parking and Bus lane Adjudicators for Scotland to the Scottish Tribunals.
Part 5: Draft Regulations setting out composition of The First-Tier Tribunal for Scotland General Regulatory Chamber and Upper Tribunal for Scotland
Background
22. Sections 38 and 40 of the 2014 Act allow the Scottish Ministers, by regulation, to determine the composition of the First-Tier and Upper Tribunals.
23. The draft regulations in Annex D apply to the composition of members when hearing cases within the First-tier Tribunal General Regulatory Chamber to the Upper Tribunal.
24. The policy intention is for the First-tier Tribunal to mirror current arrangements whereby a single legal member will hear the appeal. If an Upper Tribunal is to be convened on a point of law then the composition of the tribunal panel will mirror the composition options set out in the 2014 Act. The President of the Tribunals will determine how the Upper Tribunal should be composed on a case by case basis.
