Proceeding contribution from Lord Garel-Jones (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

The noble Lord mentioned qualified majority voting as being the norm, but I am sure that he would agree that an application by an independent Scotland for membership of the European Union, which it would have to make, would need unanimity.
