Scotland Bill

Debate between George Kerevan and Dominic Grieve

Monday 6th July 2015 Commons Chamber

[George Kerevan]

That happened 100 years before.

[Mr Grieve]

The Union of the Crowns happened 100 years before, but in my view it is clear that the constitutional union came about as a result of the Act of Union, and that therefore the Crown Estate is indeed indivisible. The fact that it may be subject to a different jurisdictional framework in Scotland is neither here nor there, and to that extent the example of Canada or Jersey is not relevant to the debate.
