§ 6. Mr. Gordon Campbellasked the Paymaster-General what consultations she has had in Scotland on questions of devolution.
§ Mr. CampbellAs the Prime Minister indicated, though in very vague terms, that this was one of the Paymaster-General's main subjects, can the right 856 hon. Lady tell the House when she intends to consult anyone in Scotland?
§ Mrs. HartI think the hon. Gentleman will be very well aware that I work in the closest possible co-operation with my right hon. Friends the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Wales. If formal consultations seem helpful at any stage, we shall have them. I think the hon. Gentleman will also agree that the Reports of the Wheatley and Maud Commissions will clearly be of great benefit to us when they appear in assisting our consideration of this issue.
