I refer to the case where the Scottish parliament blocked tuition fees being introduced in Scotland for Scottish students, yet MPs elected in Scotland voted in favour of introducing tuition fees in the Westminster parliament, which as a result has an affect on England.

Yes, that's the Scottish MPs, not the Scottish Parliament. Scottish MPs have a say in English matters, not the Scottish Parliament
