UK: Scotland: Law Commission report on unincorporated associations

The Scottish Law Commission has published its report on unincorporated associations: see here (pdf) or here (html). The Commission has recommended, inter alia, that unincorporated associations meeting certain conditions should have legal personality attributed to them unless they elect otherwise. The Commission takes the view that its proposals require legislative action by the UK Parliament and a draft of the Unincorporated Associations (Scotland) Bill is included in its report.
