Alan Brown – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Alan Brown on 2016-10-17.

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what recent discussions he has had with stakeholders in the UK on devolution of control over immigration to the Scottish Parliament once the UK leave the EU.

Mr David Jones

Legislation resulting from the UK’s exit must work for the whole of the United Kingdom. The Prime Minister has already held initial conversations with the leaders of the devolved Governments about our plans, and she will make sure that the devolved Administrations have every opportunity to work closely with us.
