In my Ministerial role as the Deputy Leader of the House of Commons, I sometimes represent Her Majesty’s Government in Parliamentary debates, often delivering the closing speech.
Such was the case when I spoke recently on behalf of the Government with regards to the use of devolved powers in Scotland and devolution arrangements following the British Exit from the European Union.
It was a great pleasure to be able to lead this debate and to be able to reflect on devolution and the future of devolved powers. I am a fervent supporter of our Union of countries that is the United Kingdom.
