Proceeding contribution from Cheryl Gillan (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

Perhaps I am being stupid on this. Is the Minister telling me that a transfer of functions order relating to the details of each field will be passed following the enactment of the Bill, or will that happen only for subsequent matters? The matters have been widened from those in schedule 2 to the 1998 Act, so I need to know how that widening has happened. If it has happened due to all the statutory instruments that I cited, that is well and good, but that does not appear to be the case. Have amendments been made to broaden the matters and give the fields broader headings? For example, the field of ““social welfare”” has been changed from social services.
