Formal Exemption from the Notification Process
21. From April 2007, all organisers apart from funeral directors must give notice of their intention to hold a procession to the local authority. The 2006 Act allows the Scottish Ministers to exempt certain types of procession from this requirement. This would be done if a local authority presented a case for a particular procession to be exempted - see paragraphs 23-25 of the guidance. So far, no such case has been made.
Question 12 - Do you think there are any types of procession which should be exempted from the notification process? If so, have you discussed this with your local authority?
