  • Letter from Ash Denham, Minister for Community Safety
    A consultation on fireworks in Scotland BACKGROUND REFERENCES Letter from Ash Denham, Minister for Community Safety Many people in Scotland enjoy attending firework displays in a safe and responsible manner. Many of us will have attended and enjoyed fireworks at celebratory events – from locally organised displays in and around bonfire night through to the annual displays at the Edinburgh Festival and Tattoo. However, ensuring fireworks are used safely and handled with care is essential to ensure they do not cause harm, distress, or serious injury. Every year, the hard work of our emergency services to tackle dangerous and anti-social behaviour associated with fireworks helps to reduce the number of incidents, particularly around bonfire night. However, every year there are still a number of concerning reports. I would like to hear your views on how you use and enjoy fireworks, and the impact fireworks have on you and your community. I would like to hear your views and ideas on what action we can take to ensure fireworks continue to be enjoyed safely and responsibly. Communities that are enabled to work together, alongside local partners, to identify issues and contribute to solutions are more likely to identify effective and sustainable ways forward that work for their local area. I would like to hear your thoughts and ideas about how we can make the most of the knowledge and experiences within our communities to support the safe and responsible use of fireworks. While the sale of fireworks is an issue only the UK Government at Westminster can change, I will use the outcomes of this consultation to inform ongoing discussions about what changes are needed.

  • Proposed Abolition of the Tay Bridge and Forth Road Bridge Tolls
    Statement of Reasons by Bruce Crawford MSP In relation to my draft proposal for a Bill to abolish the Tay Bridge and Forth Road Bridge Tolls, I do not consider that consultation on the draft is required for the following reasons: The Forth and Tay Road Bridges are now the only remaining road bridges in Scotland where a toll is collected. Toll bridges have been the subject of a major Government review. As a consequence, I am persuaded that there has been adequate opportunity for key stakeholders and the public to consider the issues relating to my proposal. I also consider that the arguments for and against my proposal have been fully explored within this review. The following paragraphs outline the progress of the Scottish Executives Review.. The Scottish Executive’s Transport White Paper published on 16 June 2004 outlined the approach for the review of existing bridge tolls in Scotland. This major review was conducted in two stages. Phase One of the review focused on the tolling regimes on the Forth, Tay, Erskine and Skye road bridges. The review examined environmental, economic and accessibility issues as well as traffic trends and alternative tolling regimes. The Phase One consultation began in July 2004 and a report was published in December 2004 “Tolled Bridges Review: Phase One Report”. 1 This led to the removal of tolls from the Skye Bridge from 21 December 2004. The Phase Two consultation began in April 2005. The resulting report, “Tolled Bridges Report – Phase Two Report” 2 was published in March 2006. It considered the broader operational and management issues associated with each toll bridge in Scotland.

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.
