Devolution and the Future of the Union: The Challenge for the New Parliament.

A report from the UCL Constitution Unit that I had the honour of playing a small part in helping to draft.

The long and short of it: where's the strategy for devolution?

“All the main parties are strongly committed to further devolution... But no party has thought through the consequences, or the spill over effects from one part of the UK to another. Nor has anyone systematically asked, how much further devolution there can be without starting to undermine the Union. That is what our report set out to do”
