Motion Text
That this House notes the decline in support within England for the union with Scotland; believes that a major cause of this is the operation of the Barnett formula; and calls on the Government to instigate an immediate review of this formula with a view to introducing a fairer method of distributing public expenditure between England and Scotland.
