Proceeding contribution from Stephen Crabb (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 March 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Welsh Affairs.
Welsh Affairs
The Secretary of State makes an important point. Has he had the chance to read The Western Mail this morning? It states that more than half all adults in Wales have poor numeracy skills and one in four has a reading and writing age of 11 or below. Does not that highlight the scale of the challenge facing Wales and the poor performance of the past 10 years, not success, as the Secretary of State likes to think?
