Scotland has interesting times to come, with the prospect of a decision about Scottish independence on the midterm horizon. At the time of writing, the Scottish government has announced its intention to hold a referendum on independence in autumn 2014. Between now and then there is much to be done to prepare for a referendum that will, in the words of the first minister, “be built in Scotland and decided by the Scottish people”. Not least, there is the task of determining the exact question or questions to be put to the people, and decisions to be made on who will, or will not, be allowed to vote.
