Proceeding contribution from Baroness Laing of Elderslie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

I fail to understand how the hon. Gentleman can find it unexciting or irrelevant that Members of the Scottish Parliament are being made more accountable to the people of Scotland. That is what devolution and increasing democracy are all about. I would have thought that he would be excited by that.
