Proceeding contribution from Lord Kerr of Kinlochard (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.
Scotland Bill
The trouble with that is that it is retrospective. It is about things that have happened and the use that has been made of powers. That is what reports are about. The safeguards in the amendment tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Browne, and in the Command Paper are about affecting the procedure prospectively when the Parliament in Scotland wishes to introduce a new tax and the Government in London are considering an Order in Council. I see a huge difference there, and it would be very good to have these in the Bill. I have not heard a convincing argument against that from the Minister.
