Officials of the Scottish and Northern Irish devolved Administrations are members of the Advisory Committee on Resource Allocation's (ACRA) Technical Advisory Group (TAG). ACRA is an independent expert committee that is responsible for
developing formulae to support the distribution NHS funding to clinical commissioning groups and to upper tier local authorities for their public health responsibilities. Until January 2012 the Welsh Assembly was also represented on ACRA.
Departmental officials have presented ACRA's recommendations to the Scottish Government's Technical Advisory Group on Resource Allocation.
Membership of ACRA and TAG is being reviewed to ensure it is fit for purpose, including ensuring an effective interchange of ideas between the countries of the United Kingdom.

My Lords, I will provide the Grand Committee with a brief summary of what this order seeks to achieve. The order is made under Section 30(2) and (4) of the Scotland Act 1998; in other words, it is a Section 30 order, like that which seems to have dominated much...

My Lords, I thank the noble Lord, Lord McAvoy. Like me, he may have transport to catch to get back to Scotland. I think that I am just about all right at the moment, but I hear the point that he makes.

Ministers and senior officials meet regularly with counterparts in the devolved Administrations (DA) seeking their views on the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), in accordance with the Memoranda of Understanding. The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the right hon. Member for North Shropshire (Mr Paterson), and I recently met with devolved Ministers to discuss their views on the reform of the CAP. We agreed we need to ensure we receive the necessary flexibility within the current proposals so implementation can reflect the agronomic and ecological diversity of the different parts of the UK. At the Secretary of State's discretion devolved Ministers have been assured attendance at Agriculture Councils.
International negotiations, including those on the reform of the CAP, are reserved matters and in such circumstances it is appropriate for the UK Minister to represent the UK as the member state, speaking to a single position. What gives us real strength in European negotiations is the fact that we discuss between ourselves what matters to all parts of the UK, and then speak coherently on our shared objectives.
Although the EU Budget is not a devolved matter, devolved Ministers are kept informed of how the negotiations are progressing. It is important to recognise that Government has a responsibility to consider the UK's wider interests including those of the UK taxpayer.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Statement by Lord McNally on 8 September 2011 (WS 34) on a Commission on the West Lothian Question, what progress Treasury Ministers have made on the issue of financing devolved Administrations.[HL1429]

The Government recognise the concerns expressed on the system of devolution funding. However,
at this time, the priority must be to reduce the deficit and any change to the system must await the stabilisation of the public finances.
However, the UK Government are taking through a number of reforms with the devolved Administrations; in particular the implementation of the Scotland Act 2012, the work of the Silk Commission in Wales, the Inter Governmental talks on Welsh Relative Funding and Needs, and the Ministerial Working Group on Rebalancing the Northern Ireland Economy.
