Of course, the order before the House today is the order that the Government have agreed to take forward with the Scottish Government on the matter of substances and devices. That is the matter on which the Government are seeking the approval of the House. In seeking that, I recognise that there is interest in the existence of schemes across the UK in view of the legislation being considered by the UK and Scottish Parliaments. This is a separate question from the one before the House today. The question today is whether the House agrees that the proper functioning of the devolution settlement means that the UK Government should ensure that the Scottish Parliament can create an overall framework for medicines and devices to be used in an assisted dying regime, should it decide to do so. I beg to move.
