Proceeding contribution from Lord Crickhowell (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 April 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill 2005-06.


Government of Wales Bill

It is not the only case. Does he agree that exactly the same situation exists in Scotland? Indeed, it has been well pointed out by the noble Lord, Lord Foulkes of Cumnock, and the Arbuthnott committee. Some 83 per cent of those elected in Scotland were elected on the basis that he described. Is that why he is replying to the debate and not the noble Lord, Lord Evans of Temple Guiting, who has had to deal with the Scottish issue on previous occasions?
