The bill's still before Scottish Parliament (basically just waiting for a Labour government), but the court ruled against the Scottish Ministers.

predicted NO

Can't find anything about this actually receiving a court challenge, despite Sturgeon's insistence it would happen. The first dependent market resolves on 2025-01-01, so that's a hard upper limit on when this will resolve. I guess we'll have to see what the new First Minister has to say when they're elected.

So it's down to the court case?

@CromlynGames Provided Sturgeon keeps her promise to challenge, yeah. (Which seems almost certain.)
