HC Deb 04 March 1994 vol 238 cc50-1W
Mr. Wallace

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland by what date he expects all the measures put forward in the Scottish Office document "A Partnership for Good" to be fully implemented, with particular reference to the proposed changes in the procedures of the Scottish Grand Committee.

Mr. Lang

The majority of proposals have already been implemented. Some others will take effect from April and the remainder are either in hand or are on-going. As regards the procedures of the Scottish Grand Committee on 10 February, I placed in the Library of the House proposed amendments to Standing Orders which will implement our commitment to expand the role of the Committee.

The amendments will be tabled in due course.
