The Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee (formerly the Merits of Statutory Instruments Committee) is a select committee of the House of Lords that refers secondary legislation, such as statutory instruments, to the House that it considers interesting or important. This is unlike the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments and Commons Select Committee on Statutory Instruments, which only scrutinise instruments for legal and drafting defects. The specific criteria used by the Committee are whether the legislation— # is politically or legally important or gives rise to issues of public policy likely to be of interest to the House # may be inappropriate in view of changed circumstances since the enactment of the parent Act # may inappropriately implement European Union legislation # may imperfectly achieve its policy objectives. The committee adopted its current name on 15 May 2012 principally because of the addition of Public Bodies Orders under the Public Bodies Act 2011. ==Members== As of 16 May 2012, the members of the committee are as follows: * Chair: Lord Goodlad (Conservative) * Lord Bichard (Crossbench) * Lord Eames (Crossbench) * Baroness Eaton (Conservative) * Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) * Lord Hart of Chilton (Labour) * Lord Methuen (Liberal Democrat) * Baroness Morris of Yardley (Labour) * Lord Norton of Louth (Conservative) * Lord Plant of Highfield (Labour) * Lord Scott of Foscote (Crossbench) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
