While the debate over the country’s constitutional future dominates politics, Ms Davidson said: “I want to talk about devolution - not devo max or devo plus, or devo mix, or I can’t believe it’s not devo - but real devolution from Holyrood to people and communities across Scotland.”
She added: “We want to put choice into the hands of Scotland’s people and give them the power to shape their own lives.”
