Proceeding contribution from Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.
Scotland Bill
We are not legislating to alter in any way the devolved responsibilities of the Scottish Parliament. All that we are doing is requiring it to treat people from the United Kingdom in the same way as those from Europe. The amendment does not refer to tuition fees or universities; it simply states that you cannot discriminate against students within the United Kingdom but must treat them in the same way as you treat all other EU students. The amendment does not in any way unravel the devolution settlement.
