Proceeding contribution from Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 13 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.


Government of Wales Bill

My Lords, I have listened to the Minister with great interest. Does he, therefore, say that one should wait for a favourable time to set the dates for local government elections so that the Government can be sure of winning them? Should the European elections, the Scottish parliamentary elections, the London Assembly elections and the Welsh Assembly elections, rather than having set dates, wait until the ruling party thinks it will win?
