Rennie outlines his plans for the future

WILLIE Rennie has announced a cross-party commission to devise an alternative package of new powers for Holyrood ahead of the independence referendum.

The Scottish LibDem leader said he wanted his party to work with Labour and the Tories on a common proposal for their 2015 General Election manifestoes.

The move is intended to counter SNP claims that a No vote in 2014 would halt or erode devolution and deny Holyrood the extra powers most Scots say they want.
