HC Deb 03 February 1999 vol 324 cc658-9W
Mr. Maude

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what additional legislation, not currently before Parliament, was assumed in the production of his Department's spending allocation for 1999–2000 to 2001–02 in the Comprehensive Spending Review. [68413]

Mr. Dewar

There is a long-standing convention that legislative proposals for each year are not announced before the Queen's Speech at the start of the relevant Session.

From 1 July 1999 most Scottish legislation will be a matter for the Scottish Parliament.
