Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (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

I am grateful to the Minister for setting that out clearly, and we will consider it in some detail. I am still not entirely clear whether the Bill protects the independent funding of those bodies, which everyone has agreed should be independent of the executive and of Ministers. The issue is not the underlying substance but whether the Bill achieves that protection. I will consider carefully what the Minister has said, including his additional reference this evening. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
