Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill.

Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

My Lords, the Government seemed not to have noticed that they were proposing to make criminal law for England when there was no provision in the devolution settlement for the Welsh Assembly to make a similar law. This is a very appropriate way of dealing with it. I express my thanks to the noble Baroness, Lady Finlay, for all her work on the issue, and to the Ministers that she has consulted, who have come up with what seems a satisfactory solution.
