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


Scotland Bill

We are going back to another question. I am answering the question about the empty space that is created. It is easiest to do that by reference to a specific example of where we are creating the space within which the Scottish Parliament will have the ability to create a new tax framework to fill that space. That example is specifically envisaged. By analogy, that is how I anticipate it will work for possible other taxes in the future if they meet a number of thresholds and requirements, legislative and otherwise, including meeting the requirements that we have been discussing in the Command Paper.
