Proceeding contribution from Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Bill [HL].
Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Bill [HL]
I am glad that others agree with me. The National Assembly for Wales should be given the chance to look at its own situation and see how the people of Wales could in their own way—our culture is different—be more involved in the decisions that affect their lives. I ask the Government to embrace these new opportunities not reluctantly, but wholeheartedly. I am certain that the Minister, with her Welsh background, will feel favourably inclined towards the amendment.
