Proceeding contribution from Lord Kingsland (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 June 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
The noble Lord has, as he always does, put forward a cogent case for his amendment. We find ourselves unable to support it, for one very simple reason: we are opposed to the whole of Part 3. It would plainly contradict that approach if we were to accept an amendment to Schedule 5, because it is incorporated in the whole of Part 3. For my part, if the amendment were introduced by a referendum in Wales, it would seem a wholly appropriate and logical conclusion for the future of government in a devolved Wales—if the people of Wales accepted that referendum. Otherwise it is a matter that the noble Lord, Lord Thomas, will have to accept will not be supported from these Benches.
