Making markets work in devolved contexts - Follow up
As you may be aware, the Scottish Competition Law Forum’s April event looked at the topical issue of devolving competition competences and at some of the pros and cons of different approaches taken in various jurisdictions. For further details of the discussion in April please see: the attached file “spring discussion note”. Since the April event, the SCLF steering committee have been looking at ways in which to provide Government with an insight into the views and experiences of our members and contributors.
To take this forward and to offer a substantial contribution to the current Scottish constitutional debate we wish now to canvass your views on a range of key questions which we have identified as coming out of the April event. For our questionaire please see the attached file. We aim to prepare a discussion paper reflecting (in a non-attributable manner) the responses to these questions and to submit this to Government (in particular the Scottish Government and the Calman Commission) for consideration.
Please provide us with your responses, addressed to Gordon Downie, by no later than Monday 25 August 2008. If there are any other queries regarding the questionnaire, please do not hesitate to let us know via the same email address.
