Policing? Armed Forces? Banks? Currency? Are the oil stocks a finite supply?.

Scottish Government/Parliament ....
Will operate in its current form, as a democracy.
Unicameral in form, there will be no unelected members.

Policing ....
Scotland already has an autonomous Police Service, so no change.
baz wrote:
Armed Forces ....
The infrastructure is already in place.
Remove nuclear weapons, and retain a conventional armament capacity.
(nuclear weapons do not prevent terrorism)
Utilise the military for defense, not illegal wars and "foreign intervention".

Currency ....
Use Sterling.
Develop an alternative, if and when it suits the people of Scotland.
baz wrote:
Oil Stocks ....
Benefit from established fields.
Develop already identified new fields.
Oil is a bonus to Independence, it is not essential.

I suppose I should be grateful it said "ex" not "old".
