Kezia Dugdale welcomes Labour in Scotland rule changes

Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale has welcomed the prospect of more powers for her party north of the border.

Labour's ruling NEC has approved devolving control over policy, constituency parties and Westminster candidate selections.

It has separately agreed that the Scottish and Welsh parties should each have a voting member of the NEC in future.

These changes still have to be agreed by the full Labour Party conference, starting at the weekend.
