That this House notes the speech of the Secretary of State for Scotland on 12th May on the implications of the euro for the Scottish economy; believes that Scotland has distinctive economic conditions that require an equally distinctive assessment of the Chancellor's five tests on euro membership for the Scottish economy; and calls on the Government to publish evidence and conclusions on euro membership specifically in relation to Scotland, and for the other nations and regions of the United Kingdom, prior to announcing any decision regarding United Kingdom membership of the euro.
