What the devolved bodies decide

Study note

The devolved governments can make decisions on many everyday matters, such as health and education, in their own nations. Some powers stay with the UK Parliament for the whole country. These reserved matters include defence, foreign affairs, immigration and taxation policy.

Memory tip: Devolved can decide health and education; reserved to the UK: defence, foreign affairs, immigration, tax policy.
