Proceeding contribution from Lord Foulkes of Cumnock (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.
Scotland Bill
I am not going to argue that ultimately this Parliament can decide anything it wishes in relation to any part of the United Kingdom. I certainly would not argue that because I respect devolution and was a great advocate for it. Could my noble friend deal with the point raised by the noble Lord, Lord Selkirk of Douglas, about discrimination. Discrimination is still a matter for the United Kingdom Parliament—it is a reserved area—and is it not overwhelmingly an issue of discrimination that has been raised today?
