The document outlines the UK Government's proposals for decentralised government in Great Britain, initiated since May 1997. It details the establishment of a Parliament and Executive in Scotland, a National Assembly for Wales, an elected Mayor and Assembly for London, and a programme of decentralisation to the English regions. The proposals emphasize a 'variable geometry' approach, reflecting differing local as PIRAtions, and require popular approval through referendums. The document elaborates on the specific models for Scotland, Wales, and London, including their legislative powers, executive arrangements, and the relationship with the UK Parliament and Government, aiming to ensure smooth transitions and effective governance.
