Proceeding contribution from Wayne David (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

The fact of the matter is that the rule applies to all parties and all candidates. There is no question of it helping the Labour party or Plaid Cymru; it simply provides more fairness for everyone. That is what it is all about. Opposition Members, however, do not like the term ““fairness””, which is obviously antipathetic to everything that they stand for.
