Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond told a party conference this afternoon "It's about putting Scotland's future in Scotland's hands.
Responding to the First Minister's speech, former Liberal Democrat leader Sir Menzies Campbell said:
All we have heard today is more of the same from a party who seem reluctant to answer the big questions over what independence would truly mean for Scotland.
The one thing the polls show is that the majority of Scots want to stay as part of the UK family with a stronger Scottish Parliament.
Most Scots want to see us build on the successes of devolution and secure new powers for Holyrood.
That is what Liberal Democrat Home Rule plans would mean for Scotland.
A positive vote to stay in the UK will help us deliver the change that people really want to see.
