Presented by Julian Worricker. Should Scotland be given more fiscal autonomy? For the last thirty years the Barnett Formula has been used to allocate taxpayers' money between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, but now it's coming under review. On the 17th December a select committee is meeting for the first time in the House of Lords to look at the issue, and it may recommend changes. So is there a better way, and might this be the moment for Scotland - seen by some as a beneficiary of the Barnett formula - to be given more fiscal autonomy?
