Coronavirus and the Devolved Nations
How well is the intense cooperation over COVID-19 between Westminster and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland working? Is Coronavirus demonstrating the strength of devolution, or does it highlight the need for central government to take a strong lead? What can we learn from cooperation in past crises? And what does all this mean for the Union and the debates around Scottish independence and Irish reunification?
Debating this with Akash Paun, Senior Fellow at the Institute for Government, this are:
Rt Hon Carwyn Jones AM, former First Minister of Wales
Dr Katy Hayward, Reader in Sociology at Queen’s University Belfast
Rt Hon Lord Dunlop, former Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Scotland and Northern Ireland
Professor Nicola McEwen, professor of Territorial Politics, University of Edinburgh
