Proceeding contribution from David Jones (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
The hon. Member for Monmouth (David T.C. Davies) may wish to raise other desirable options. I would have liked a provision to elect 40 male and 40 female Members, so that there is an in-built gender balance. However, that is not the way this place works. The Bill, on the whole, is acceptable to my electorate and will carry forward devolution in Wales, as I said.
