Parliamentary Search

Proceeding contribution from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.

Scotland Bill

As chair of the all-party parliamentary Scotch whisky and spirits group, I can tell the hon. Gentleman that the Scottish whisky industry is deeply concerned about his proposals. What worries the industry are the administration costs. It would be necessary to designate the final destination of the product, and, even more worryingly, Members of Parliament would bear the additional burden of taking carry-outs from London to their constituencies in Glasgow.
