Proceeding contribution from Lord Elystan-Morgan (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
My Lords, I fail to see how there can be real validity to that argument. The devolution that occurred prior to the setting up of the Welsh Assembly in 1998 was not one piece of devolution but a long series of acts of devolution, amounting to some 600 or 700 individual items, over the period of 1964 to 1998. There have been some instances of piecemeal devolution ever since, and I am sure the noble Lord, Lord Kingsland is not arguing that there should be a referendum on each occasion.
