Proceeding contribution from Lord Crickhowell (Conservative) 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, the process of devolution is subject to veto by the Secretary of State in almost every part of the Bill, and even if the Welsh Assembly decides by a substantial majority that it is time to go to full legislative devolution, the Secretary of State will stop it unless he is absolutely certain that he will get the result he wants.
