IS SCOTLAND OVER-GOVERNED?

Friday, December 29, 2006

Scotland's economic growth lags that of the rest of the U.K. Is this due to the proliferation of new laws since devolution in 1999?

  • Over 3000 rules and laws have been created post 1999 which intrude on all aspects of personal life.
  • 3,100 Scottish Statutory Instruments (subordinate legislation).
  • Also, central government in Westminster has passed almost the same number of laws affecting Scotland.
  • The business sector is concerned with the level of spurious and over-regulation.
