MSPs take forward Scotland and Europe inquiry Print E-mail
Friday, 02 November 2007

Three MSPs have been appointed by the European and External Relations Committee to follow up the recommendations of a previous European Union inquiry.

Alex Neil, Irene Oldfather and Iain Smith will look at the findings of the last European and External Relations committee, which asked Jim Wallace to lead an inquiry into the Scottish Government's effectiveness at representing Scottish interests at EU level.

Current committee convener Malcolm Chisholm said: "The previous committee's inquiry revealed that there are real concerns about the way in which legislation from Brussels adequately reflects Scottish interests, its unique legal system and the needs of Scottish stakeholders.

"This new inquiry will focus on the way in which the Scottish Government engages with those stakeholders and the UK Government as well as looking at the transparency of this process."

The closing date for the consultation is 11 January 2008.

I hope there will be some more details. This is a big and very important subject especially as the current SNP Government wants independence within the EU. Will independence mean anything useful if Scotland is ruled from Brussels instead of Westminster
