    Are you just going to ignore how the Scottish government is comprised of a civil service which is a branch of the UK setup and takes its direction from Whitehall. Do you think Leslie Evans would have been any more cooperative if there was currently a labour govt? If David Davis was right about anything, it is the lack of an independent Scottish civil service. Labour wanted to keep control of Holyrood from Westminster, though.

    I am not sure if this answers your point. It seems to me that the Scottish Civil servants are responsible to the Scottish government while being part of the UK system.
