Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
I do not know whether it was the price of the Liberals going into coalition, but it was certainly a great virtue. Setting up the Richard commission was a great advance in the understanding of devolution in Wales, because it gave lots of people the opportunity to participate and to be consulted. Having set up the commission with the Labour Assembly Government’s agreement, more consideration should have been given to it, as it was certainly a very expensive exercise.
