Proceeding contribution from Earl of Caithness (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

My Lords, if I might follow my noble friend Lord Forsyth, he said that the reply that our noble and learned friend was going to give was that all of this would just provide a power for the Scottish Parliament. That is true, but it has cost implications for the police forces in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. If my noble and learned friend cannot accept this amendment, would it not therefore be in order for the other police forces that are put to extra cost by the Scottish police, in seeking information about firearms, to charge for the cost of their time?
