Proceeding contribution from Hywel Williams (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

Does the hon. Lady find it curious that Labour Members place such weight on this report, given the small number of respondents it involved? When the Electoral Commission’s scientific research was discussed by the Welsh Affairs Committee, Labour Members’ response was, ““Who are these people? Are they paid? How were they selected?”” There was a great deal of scepticism expressed at that time, yet great weight is placed on this piece of research. Is not that strange?
