Scotland (like England, Wales and Northern Ireland) has its own parliament
The Scottish parliament can create their own Scotland-specific laws on 'devolved matters' (as defined in the Scotland Act 1998). Devolved matters are issues that are specific to Scotland such as their agriculture, tourism, education system and so forth.
