Proceeding contribution from Michael Moore (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.

Scotland Bill

I respect the thoroughness with which the hon. Gentleman usually approaches such matters, and he has clearly spotted the bit in the Command Paper that says that, as of 2013, we will introduce the new capital borrowing powers. In the first couple of years, there will be additional Treasury constraints in relation to the feasibility and appropriateness of projects, as a precursor to those capital powers being fully available, in 2015, to the Scottish Parliament and the Government formed from it.
