Scottish Independence Referendum Act 2013
The Scottish Independence Referendum Act 2013 is an Act of the Scottish Parliament, which was passed on 14 November 2013 and came into force on 18 December.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Scottish Independence Referendum Act 2013 )〕 Together with the Scottish Independence Referendum (Franchise) Act 2013, it enabled the Scottish independence referendum, 2014. This followed an agreement between the Scottish and the United Kingdom governments to make an exception to the Scottish devolution scheme, which ordinarily reserves constitutional matters to Westminster.
The bill was introduced in the Scottish Parliament on 21 March 2013 by Nicola Sturgeon MSP,
with backing from the Referendum (Scotland) Bill Committee. The Scottish National Party, as the ruling party in Scotland and led by the then First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond, ensured that the bill was passed.〔
The pair of acts provided that there would be a vote in Scotland on whether Scotland would become independent from the rest of the United Kingdom. There would be a simple yes or no question: "Do you agree that Scotland should be an independent country?"〔 The vote would take place on 18 September 2014. With some exceptions, all European Union (EU) or Commonwealth citizens resident in Scotland and aged 16 or over could vote, a total of almost 4.3 million people. People of Scottish descent living outside Scotland would not be able to vote.〔
