Proceeding contribution from Baroness Stowell of Beeston (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 January 2023. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Scotland Act 1998: Section 35 Power.
Scotland Act 1998: Section 35 Power
Does my noble friend the Minister agree that what the noble Baroness, Lady Liddell, has ably demonstrated in referring to concerns about the fraudulent use of this provision is the importance of the Government and the Official Opposition being united in their position on the steps proposed by the Scottish Parliament, so that we can put on a united front as the United Kingdom Parliament in exposing that the Scottish Government are using something so profound and sensitive for political purposes and, if there is a difference of view on some of the substance of the matter, object to it on those grounds?
