Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Mike Weir (Scottish National Party). It was answered on Wednesday, 21 July 2010 on behalf of the Scotland Office.


Devolution Settlement

Question
Given what the Secretary of State has said, will he press all relevant UK Government Departments to release all papers relating to both the negotiation of the prisoner transfer agreement between the UK and Libya and the concurrent commercial contract between BP and Libya?
Answer

The Prime Minister in his discussions with the President of the United States and other senior American politicians has put forward the proposal that the Cabinet Secretary will review the papers that exist, and we believe that that is a very important step forward, which, hopefully, will find support across the House.
