EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends Part 2 of schedule 2 to the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman Act 2002. Schedule 2 to that Act specifies persons liable to investigation by the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman. The Order removes the General Teaching Council for Scotland from the list of persons specified for this purpose. This is in consequence of the amendments to the functions, constitution and governance arrangements of the General Teaching Council for Scotland made by the Public Services Reform (General Teaching Council for Scotland) Order 2011 ( S.S.I. 2011/215).
