"This research note highlights the substantive changes to the Ethical Standards in Public Life etc. (Scotland) Bill as amended at stage 2 (committee stage) of the Parliament’s legislative process. The Bill introduces a statutory framework to ensure that high standards of conduct are maintained in specific areas of public life. The Bill also repeals section 2A (commonly referred to as section or clause28) of the Local Government Act 1986 and places a new duty on local authorities with regard to their provision of services for children. The key areas that the Executive committed itself to address in amendments lodged at stage 3 of the legislative process are also examined. The research note supplements the research paper 00/051 which examines the background to the introduction of the Bill; an overview of Bill itself, the existing regulatory regime and key issues raised by the Executive consultation and pre-legislative scrutiny process."
