Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill (HL).


Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill [Lords]

We understand what the Secretary of State is saying, but we wish that the Bill were able to improve and increase the devolved settlement, and to enable it to become more mature. We wish that it would allow the commissioner, who will necessarily be an independent officer, to have more powers.
