Part 5 of the 2016 Act contains a number of regulation making powers. They allow Scottish Ministers to make regulations about a number of matters that relate to Part 5. The main purpose of this consultation is to explain the Scottish Government’s proposals for how it will use these regulation making powers, to present a broad outline of how Part 5 will work once it is in force, and to give you the opportunity to put forward your views on these proposals.
There are however regulation making powers for some of the procedural requirements. These include the power under section 56(9), which allows regulations to be made about the form and content of the Part 5 community body’s request to a land owner or tenant to seek the transfer of land or tenant’s interest prior to any formal right to buy application. Section 56(9) also allows regulations to be made about the form and content of a response from a land owner to a community body’s request and the circumstances in which owners are taken not to have responded.
In addition to the regulation making powers connected with some of the procedural conditions, there are several other regulation making powers contained in Part 5. These include powers to specify types of land and tenant’s interests which are not eligible for purchase under Part 5, and regulations for governing community ballot processes.
