Proceeding contribution from Lord Kingsland (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 3 May 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

In that case, the noble LordĀ agrees with me that, in effect, the Assembly is making primary legislation. If the Secretary of State has absolutely no discretion to do anything other than to table the order at Buckingham Palace, without reference to the Westminster Parliament, the Welsh Assembly measure is effectively primary legislation. Would the noble LordĀ agree?
