Asked for the Prime Minister s response to the demand from the First Minister that Scotland should get an extra 1 billion to get through the economic downturn, the PMS said that what we had seen in the last week was considerable support for Scottish banks which, as the Prime Minister had said, was only possible because we were a United Kingdom. We needed to support Scotland through this downturn, just as we needed to support England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and this is what the Government of the United Kingdom would continue to do.
