Regulation 2 Taking of oaths – Chamber Presidents

In anticipation of the transfer of the functions of a listed tribunal, the President of that tribunal may take the required oaths for the purposes of paragraph 11(3) of schedule 7 of the Act at a time prior to that person becoming a Chamber President in the First-tier Tribunal.

A person may take the required oaths under paragraph (1) only if that person has received from the Scottish Ministers a letter stating that it is their intention that that person become a Chamber President, whether by appointment or by transfer by way of regulations under paragraph 1(1) of schedule 2 of the Act.
