Parliament‘s powers: what is the public‘s understanding?

In this podcast introduced by Kenneth Gibson MSP, Convener of the Finance and Public Administration Committee, we learn about the public's understanding of powers held by the Scottish Parliament.

Professor Graeme Roy from the University of Glasgow presents key findings of a research project undertaken in collaboration with SPICe - the Parliament's independent research body.

The project also investigated whether better understanding of devolved powers has led to improved parliamentary scrutiny.
