The health boards are listed in alphabetical order, followed by the name of the MSPs, their party and the constituency or region they represent.

LEGISLATIVE SCRUTINY ON CONSTITUTIONAL GROUNDS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM PARLIAMENT THE CONTRIBUTION OF CONSTITUTIONAL COMMITTEES TO (POLITICAL?) RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONSTITUTION PABLO SALVADOR GREZ HIDALGO Presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2019 IN MEMORIAM FRANCISCO GREZ MORANDI iii ABSTRACT / LAY SUMMARY This thesis focuses on institutional arrangements designed to strengthen the ability of political institutions to assess the constitutional implications of legislation in the law-making process. It sheds light in the under-developed field of parliamentary constitutional assessments by bringing together disparate constitutional theory literature that discusses or touches upon the distinctiveness of this activity with a view to conceptualise “legislative scrutiny on constitutional grounds” (“LSGC”). The thesis distinguishes three alternative conceptions of LSCG: a legalistic conception, a conception of constitutional deliberation, and a conception of constitutional construction and development.
