Scotland lost its independent Parliament after the Union of the Parliaments in 1707.
In 1999 it regained its Parliament and the ability to pass laws on most things except for foreign, economic and military affairs.
The British parliament started when the Acts of Union in 1707 brought England and Scotland together under the Parliament of Great Britain. - "The Parliament of Great Britain was formed in 1707 following the ratification of the Acts of Union by both the Parliament of England and Parliament of Scotland."
The Parliament of Great Britain was created in 1707 through the Act of Union between England and Scotland. This union merged the separate Parliaments of England and Scotland into one, creating the Parliament of Great Britain.
England didn't control Scotland in the Act of Union. When the Parliaments of England and Scotland were merged in 1707, Scotland was fully represented at the combined Parliament in London and new laws applied equally to both countries.
The Acts of Union between the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of Scotland in 1707 caused the dissolution of both the Parliament of England andParliament of Scotland in order to create a unified Kingdom of Great Britain governed by a unified Parliament of Great Britain.
Ironically, it was the death of Queen Elizabeth the First that brought about the union of England and Scotland; James I (of England, VI of Scotland) became king of both countries.
I presume you mean WHEN did Scotland and England unite! If so, the Union of the Crowns took place in 1603 and the Union of the Parliaments in 1707. A Scottish Parliament (within the UK) was recreated in 1999.

England and Scotland
No, Scotland was in union with England then.
The Scottish parliament and the English Parliament both signed acts of union to create Great Britain in 1707. The monarch of both countries was Queen Anne.
"New Scotland Yard" is the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police - the police service for Greater London, England. The current "New Scotland Yard" is actually the second building with this name; the first was converted into offices for the UK Parliament. The name "Scotland Yard" comes from a small street off Whitehall in London, where the Scottish Embassy was based prior to the political union of Scotland and England in 1707. The Metropolitan Police later had its headquarters in this street (until the 1880s, when the first New Scotland Yard was built).
Scotland and England created a union called Great Britain in 1707. England did not conquer Scotland.
