Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 3:37 pm on 5 July 2016.
Thank you very much to Jenny Miles. Just to say, I was eager to appear before the Assembly before the summer with a statement, just to have an opportunity to discuss things together and provide an update to Assembly Members. On the experience in Scotland, it’s on the agenda for the meeting I have next week with the Minister from Scotland to press ahead with those discussions that we’ve had with them and to learn from the experiences that they’ve had. The best way to be clear that in our hands, and in the hands of the National Assembly, is where the final choice rests to accept the framework and to be content with the framework—that’s vital. The best way to do that—well, that’ll be part of the process that we’re going to have in the autumn of discussing everything with the Treasury Secretary in London.
