PROTECTION OF VULNERABLE ADULTS

This Order brings into force certain provisions of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007 (“the Act”). Article 2(1) brings into force, on 18th April 2010, all the provisions of the Act listed in the Schedule. Article 2(3) provides that (subject to article 2(4)) all these provisions come into force only for the purpose of enabling regulations or orders to be made under them. Article 2(4) provides that, where a purpose is specified in column 3 of the Schedule in relation to any provision, that provision comes into force only for the purpose specified. The effect is therefore that section 88 of the Act comes into force only in relation to paragraph 29 of schedule 4 to the Act and the remaining provisions listed in the Schedule come into force for the purpose of making regulations or orders.
