Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

It is entirely dishonourable for someone to use public funds to send out leaflets and press releases claiming to be the Assembly Member based in the Rhondda and trying thereby to deceive the people of the Rhondda into believing that they were elected for that constituency. I simply believe that is wrong. Furthermore, that is an act of fraud—[Interruption.] Fraudulent and fraud come from the same base—[Interruption.]
