Other provisions in Part 1 Miscellaneous provisions relating to Scotland
Operational agencies in Scotland identified two bespoke amendments to POCA to reflect the nuances of the Scottish legal system. The Act:
allows, for the first time, the High Court of Justiciary and the Sheriff Court the power to order money in accounts and money held as cash productions to be paid in satisfaction of a confiscation order (note that a similar power already existed and is extended by this Act in relation to England, Wales and Northern Ireland); and
places a duty on the Court of Session to grant the trustee for civil recovery a decree of removing and a warrant for ejection to recover possession of heritable property in respect of which it makes a recovery order.
