The question
To ask the Scottish Executive what role it has in ensuring that concordats between it and Her Majesty's Government are fully complied with and how it carries out this role.
The answer
Each bilateral concordat provides for dispute resolution procedures, at senior official level and ministerial level, and also refers to the process for triggering a formal intervention of the Joint Ministerial Committee, the final dispute resolution option. The Executive monitors observance with the concordats by reference to the need for recourse to the dispute resolution procedures.
