Scotland

When asked whether the PM had spoken to business leaders encouraging them to speak out regarding the Scottish referendum and whether he thought businesses should do so, the PMOS said the PM had made no particular secret ? and had referred to it in speeches ? of his view regarding voices across the UK setting out their views and encouraging those who have these views to make them known. The PMOS said that the PM believes that it is important that the debate that is in front of the people of Scotland is as well informed as possible. The PMOS added that the PM speaks to business leaders all the time but of course it is up to those individuals to set out their own views. When asked whether it was Downing Street?s idea for a round-robin letter from business leaders to be sent round, the PMOS said if there are individuals or organisations that choose to set out their opinion in whatever form, then that is entirely their decision.
