Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 March 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Welsh Affairs.


Welsh Affairs

The financial link between Wales and the UK is the Barnett formula, but on 21 February, the Prime Minister said that the Labour Government would adhere strictly to that formula, even though its author says that it is past its sell-by date and is outdated. Will the Secretary of State confirm that he supports the Prime Minister on that point, or will Wales get the funds appropriate to its needs, and not just to the number of people who live there?
