Trusts and Succession (Scotland) Bill: islands communities impact assessment

An island communities impact assessment (ICIA) to consider the impact of the Trusts and Succession (Scotland) Bill.


Step four - Assessment

Does your assessment identify any unique impacts on island communities?

No. We do not anticipate that any impact on island communities will be different from the impact of communities on the mainland.

Does your assessment identify any potential barriers or wider impacts?

We do not consider there to be any potential barriers.

How will you address these?

N/A

Given the foregoing, in our opinion, we do not consider that this Bill will have an effect on an island community which is significantly different from its effect on other communities (including other island communities).

In preparing the ICIA, I have formed an opinion that our policy, strategy or service is NOT likely to have an effect on an island community which is significantly different from its effect on other communities (including other island communities).
