Scotland Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord McAvoy (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 November 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Scotland Bill.

Your Lordships’ House should be aware that I was sitting here a few minutes ago, before I started, wishing that the noble Lord, Lord Forsyth of Drumlean, would ask that question. The noble Lord was a driving force in imposing the poll tax in Scotland, which was certainly to the detriment of Scotland. He did not give any consideration to the detriment to his country then. I am really glad that the noble Lord asked that question.
