Proceeding contribution from Lord Adonis (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Further Education and Training Bill [HL].


Further Education and Training Bill [HL]

moved Amendment No. 4: 4: Clause 25 , page 17, line 41, leave out from beginning to ““insert—”” in line 42 and insert— ““( ) Part 1 of Schedule 5 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32) (Assembly Measures) is amended as follows. ( ) In field 5 (education and training), after matter 5.10”” The noble Lord said: My Lords, I shall speak also to Amendments Nos. 5 and 6. Clause 25 enhances the legislative competence of the National Assembly for Wales in a number of policy areas in the field of further education and training. These are listed as matters to be inserted into field 5 of Schedule 5 to the Government of Wales Act 2006. This is a minor, technical amendment that changes the wording, but not the effect, of Clause 25. A draft Order in Council, which converts framework powers in the Education and Inspections Act 2006, has been laid before the National Assembly for Wales. This conversion order inserts matters into field 5 of Schedule 5 to the Government of Wales Act 2006, and so does Clause 25. This amendment ensures that the wording of the matters to be inserted into field 5 under Clause 25 is consistent with the wording of the matters to be inserted into field 5 under the conversion order. The matters listed in Clause 25 will also need to be renumbered to ensure consistency with the conversion order. That will be done on printing. I beg to move. On Question, amendment agreed to.
