Devolution and the Union

Proceeding contribution from Alan Reid (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 November 2014. It occurred during Backbench debate on Devolution and the Union.

The coalition agreement has been adhered to. At my party’s conference in October—it is usually in September, but the SNP chose a date that falls during our conference for the referendum—we passed a motion that the Barnett formula would be continued. The hon.

Gentleman is correct that we had a different policy in the past, but we have a democratic policy-making process in our party, and the party, through its democratic policy-making processes at our annual conference, has voted that the Barnett formula should continue.
