Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Gillian Keegan and Kevin Foster

Wednesday 10th July 2019 Commons Chamber

[Kevin Foster]

As I said a few moments ago, the review will need to take into account and support the current devolution settlement.

I wish that, in my assessment of devolution, I could have said that it had produced better education standards in Scotland. In fact, however, Scottish schools have fallen in international rankings, and a smaller percentage of Scotland’s most deprived children go to university than in any other part of the United Kingdom. It is not devolution that is at fault; it is the Scottish National party.
