Business question from Elfyn Llwyd (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 May 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Today we mourn the passing of a colleague—the late Peter Law, the Member for Blaenau Gwent. New Labour, in an effort to prevent him from standing for Parliament, offered him a peerage. The man named as being responsible is the Secretary of State for Wales, who made the offer on the specific authority of the Prime Minister. When can we have a debate on this corrupt practice?
