Proceeding contribution from John Mason (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
I thank the Minister for giving way. I do not always agree that volume of words is better than fewer. May I press him on the point about Scotland coming into line with England? Does he accept that the point of devolution is that we do things slightly differently in the different nations?
