It was the devolution project that led Ken Macintosh to consider standing for the first time as a political candidate.
Inspired by his Skye-born father, Farquhar Macintosh, who was active in the first campaign to create a Scottish Parliament, in the late 1970s, the MSP insists it forms part of his “political make-up”.
Joining the Labour Party a decade later, spurred on by the “industrial discontent” experienced under former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, he said it was devolution specifically that persuaded him to enter elected politics.

Audiences in Northern Ireland will have to wait to see a new documentary on disgraced tycoon John DeLorean.
Theatrical documentary DeLorean: Back From the Future is being aired in the rest of the UK on BBC2 this evening- but not in Northern Ireland.
NI Screen said BBC NI would transmit the documentary - funded by NI Screen and produced by Fired Up Films - in two parts at a later date.
The documentary explores how DeLorean arrived in Northern Ireland from Detroit, where he made his name as the youngest-ever vice-president of GM Motors.
In Troubles-ravaged west Belfast, he used £84m of taxpayers money extracted from the Labour government to build the DMC-12 stainless steel sports car made famous in the Back to the Future movies.
