Lord Dunlop
I say to the noble Lord that we in the UK Government are determined to go the extra mile to ensure that we get a deal.
Lord Lawson of Blaby (Con)
Will my noble friend confirm his answer to my noble friend Lord Higgins? Will he give an undertaking that the Scotland Bill will not proceed any further until the fiscal framework has been published?
Lord Dunlop
Our priority is to get a deal done so that we have a fiscal framework that this House can scrutinise. That is our first priority.
