Devolve the section 30 powers to the Scottish Parliament (permanently).

Closed 54 signatures

What the petition asks

The democratically elected Scottish Government (SG) should not need to beg Westminster to enact a mandate to hold referenda.

As we see at the moment, Westminster has said it would refuse the SG a section 30 order. This denies the will of the Scottish people & is undemocratic!
