Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 22 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

My Lords, of all the Bills on which the Government should be attacked for having centralist control, I find it really rather odd that we should be attacked on this one—a Bill that gives additional powers of devolution that the Conservative Party in office never dreamed of, or if it did dream of them, totally rejected them.
