Scotland deserves real home rule settlement - Scott

November 19, 2008 12:51 PM
Originally published by Scottish Liberal Democrats

Commenting on the report published by the independent group advising the Calman Commission on financial accountability, Tavish Scott, leader of the Liberal Democrats in Scotland said:

"This report paves the way for the Steel Commission's recommendation that the Scottish Parliament should have significantly more powers.

"The UK Government published depressingly negative and unimaginative evidence last week. I am looking forward to Calman's interim report, which I hope will point us in the direction of a much more radical and ambitious home rule settlement for Scotland with strong tax powers. Labour and the Tories need to overcome their squeamishness about moving Scotland forward."
