Paragraph 30
219.This amends section 59(1) (statutory authority). Section 59(1) provides that nothing in the DDA makes unlawful any act done in pursuance of any enactment, or in pursuance of any instrument made by a Minister of the Crown under any enactment, or to comply with any condition or requirement imposed by a Minister of the Crown by virtue of any enactment. The amendment applies section 59(1) to acts done in pursuance of instruments made by, and conditions or requirements imposed by, a member of the Scottish Executive, or the National Assembly for Wales.
