The question
To ask the Scottish Government what progress has been made in publishing a draft referendum Bill.
The answer
I’m pleased to announce that the draft referendum bill is being published today.The largest number of pro-independence MSPs in history has voted to support the call for powers to hold a referendum on Scottish independence to be devolved to the Scottish Parliament.This draft Bill, which is a First 100 Days commitment, is being published to show what a referendum bill would look like at the point at which an agreement to hold a lawful independence referendum has been reached.
