The Future of Scotland

That the Parliament notes with grave concern the confusion caused by the contradictory comments of the First Minister and Deputy First Minister as to whether or not legal advice had been sought regarding an independent Scotland's status in respect of EU membership; considers that clarification of the situation is still required and calls on the First Minister to make a full statement to the Parliament providing such clarification, and urges the Lord Advocate to inform the Parliament what advice he has provided to the Scottish Government, believing that the credibility of the First Minister and the Scottish Government are at stake and that nothing less than full disclosure is required.
