Mr. Robert McCartney: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will set out the (a) strategic and (b) economic interests
which require the maintenance of the union between Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom; and if he will make a
statement.[35992]
Mr. Michael Forsyth: The Union between Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom has provided political and financial stability
for nearly 300 years. It has been the cornerstone of the prosperity enjoyed by all of the peoples of the United Kingdom. The
creation of a tax raising Scottish Parliament as proposed by Opposition parties would threaten the existence of the Union and the
benefits of partnership would be lost.

That this House notes that, for the next occasion on which oral questions are being answered by Welsh Office Ministers, Monday 29th April, the Order Paper has once again been swamped by questions placed by English constituency honourable Members by whose actions many Welsh honourable Members are prevented from being reached on the Order Paper and thereby issues of importance to the people of Wales are not raised in the Chamber; asserts that this is a systematic attempt by Tory honourable Members to avoid the Secretary of State for Wales being properly answerable to the Welsh electorate, presumably because of the recognition on Tory benches of the inadequacy of Welsh Office ministers and their incapability of handling a wide range of questions from Welsh constituency honourable members; and concludes that since Westminster is unable to provide an effective system of answerability, there is now an overwhelming need for the Welsh Office to become answerable to an elected Welsh parliament.

That this House notes the comments made at the launch of the agenda for the Scottish Labour Conference by the Scottish Labour Party's General Secretary Mr Jack McConnell on 27th February that a two year timescale to establish a Scottish Assembly is unduly 'pessimistic'; recalls his earlier statement in the Daily Mail on 3rd January 1996 that 'within a year of Labour being elected to power there will be a Scottish parliament.'; further notes the statement by Labour's Scottish spokesperson, the honourable Member for Hamilton at the Scottish Local Government Information Unit Conference on 16th February that the whole process would take a full two and a half years, a year for the legislation and a further 18 months to hold elections and set the assembly up; is concerned at the contradictory pronouncements of Labour politicians on the timescale for establishing a Scottish Assembly; and calls on the Labour leadership to stop sending confused signals to the Scottish electorate and to clarify their position on what is supposed to be their 'flagship policy' in Scotland.
