Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it plans to publish details of its view regarding the UK Government’s activity in relation to devolution following Brexit.
Answer
The Scottish Government published a report on 8 March 2021 showing the extent to which the Scottish Parliament’s powers are being eroded by the UK Government following the 2016 Brexit vote.
The report details the way in which devolution is being fundamentally undermined, culminating with the introduction of the UK Internal Market Act upon EU exit.
The report can be found on the Scottish Government’s website: After Brexit: The UK Internal Market Act & Devolution - gov.scot (www.gov.scot)
