There would be nothing wrong in draft legislation being produced and circulated for representations.
Making regulations regarding accuracy and labelling truthfulness in labelling and advertising of kilts shouldn't really be that complicated a thing to do and if the Chiefs do not feel able to engage in M.O.R.'s suggestion they could at least be a party for consultation. It's people being given the information to make an informed choice and any seals of approval as well are an added bonus.
What the kilt material is, where it is woven, where it is made up, hand or machine, sewn, are simple statements that criticise or exclude nobody. Other endorsements are not a legal requirement but still nice to have.
We see it in so many other areas already where labelling gives detailed information and then they will advertise recommendations from various bodies or magazines. What works for electronics, cars, washing powder, food etc. can surely work for Scottish kilts.
