The Bill was passed by the Scottish Parliament on 11 March 2014 and received Royal Assent on 15 April 2014. [1]

Provisions

The act established a two-tier structure for tribunals consisting of the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland and the Upper Tribunal for Scotland, replacing a number of separate tribunals. [2] [3] [4] It provides for the First-tier Tribunal to be organised into a number of chambers, according to subject-matter and other relevant factors. [5]

It also created the role of President of the Scottish Tribunals to exercise the Lord President's role in the management of tribunals. [6]

The Edinburgh Law Review described the act as 'Align[ing] the devolved tribunals with the reserved tribunals currently operating across the UK'. [7]
