Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 November 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sale of Student Loans Bill.


Sale of Student Loans Bill

As I understand it, the powers given to Ministers in the Welsh Assembly are known as mirror powers, not the framework powers usually associated with legislation such as the Bill. Mirror powers are limiting and only allow Welsh Ministers to proceed in exactly the same way as Ministers in the UK. Has the Minister received any representations about changing the mirror powers to framework powers?
