Proceeding contribution from Angus Robertson (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.
Armed Forces Bill
The Minister will be aware that many, if not most of the public services covered in the covenant are devolved. I am sure that he will join me in commending the work of Major-General David McDowall, the Scottish Government's expert adviser on veterans' affairs, for his efforts in this field. Will the Minister confirm that there has been correspondence between the First Minister and the Secretary of State for Defence to confirm the delivery of the covenant in Scotland?
