PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Smith Commission (13 July 2015)

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, pursuant to the Answer of 9 July 2015 to Question 5448 and to the contribution of the Leader of the House of 2 July 2015, Official Report, column 1644, what independent assessments the Government has taken into account when assessing whether the Scotland Bill will deliver the Smith Commission agreement in full.

Asked by:
Kirsty Blackman (Scottish National Party)

The Government is continuing to engage with civic Scotland, members of the UK and Scottish Parliaments and the Scottish Government as the Scotland Bill progresses through its stages of parliamentary scrutiny. I am confident that the Scotland Bill will deliver the Smith Commission agreement in full and will be recognised as doing so.
