Proceeding contribution from Elfyn Llwyd (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
Is it not the simple fact that, given that the Labour Administration in Cardiff who, for their own reasons, want to engineer a deadlock on this issue, which they can, the d’Hondt system has to come in? The mere suggestion then that a two thirds majority—a supramajority—could suddenly overturn d’Hondt is fantasy and nonsense.
