Scottish Constitutional Commission

The Scottish Constitutional Commission was established to evaluate and propose changes to Scotland’s governance and constitutional framework, particularly in the context of devolution. Formed in the late 20th century, it aimed to address issues surrounding Scotland's autonomy and relationship with the UK Parliament. The Commission's work contributed to discussions on establishing the Scottish Parliament, leading to the Scotland Act of 1998, which granted Scotland varying degrees of legislative power. Its efforts helped shape modern Scottish governance and the political landscape, reflecting evolving demands for self-determination and representation within the UK.
