"On 25 October 2007, the Scottish Government introduced the Public Health etc. (Scotland) Bill to the Scottish Parliament. The Bill aims to modernise the legislative framework governing the practice of health protection as, at present, much of the statute dates back to the late 19th century. The Bill includes provisions regarding:- clarifying the roles and responsibilities of NHS boards and local authorities- a new system of statutory notification for diseases, organisms and health risk states- powers for public health investigators- orders for medical examination, quarantine, exclusion, restriction and hospital detention- the Implementation of International Health Regulations- information on the health effects of sunbeds- changes to the statutory nuisance regime- offences and penalties for non-compliance with aspects of the Bill."
