EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke the Bankruptcy Fees (Scotland) Regulations 2017 which updated provision for fees and outlays payable to the Accountant in Bankruptcy ("AiB") in respect of the exercise of that office's functions under the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 2016 ("the 2016 Act") and when and in what manner certain bankruptcy fees and outlays are due for payment.
Those Regulations are revoked with effect from 28th March 2017, before they have effect.
Provision for fees and outlays payable to AiB and when and in what manner continue by virtue of the Bankruptcy Fees (Scotland) Regulations 2014 (S.S.I. 2014/227 as amended by S.S.I. 2015/80) and sections 234(3) and 235(1), (2) and (4) of the 2016 Act.
