Abstract
The Government recently published the Scotland Bill, which in essence should implement the recommendations of the post-referendum, cross-party Smith Commission, and provide for new powers in a range of areas. Adam Tomkins – a member of the commission representing the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party – argues that this is most welcome, and can move us from a situation in which debate in Scotland can move from being about the insufficient range of powers available, to a detailed scrutiny of how power is actually used.
