Proceeding contribution from Nick Ainger (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill (HL).
Commissioner for Older People (Wales) Bill [Lords]
Absolutely. In our debates, nobody has questioned the fact that the commissioner should be open and transparent. The commissioner should be independent both of any political influence and of the Assembly as a whole, and should be able to commission research that he or she feels necessary to work as a champion for older people in Wales.
