Proceeding contribution from Lord Faulkner of Worcester (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 July 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on National Assembly for Wales (Legislative Competence) (Social Welfare) Order 2009.


National Assembly for Wales (Legislative Competence) (Social Welfare) Order 2009

My noble friend is right. This is almost certainly a debate for the next Parliament. Finally, I agree with the noble Lord, Lord Elystan-Morgan, that one virtue of the process on which we have embarked is that we are building up a cadre of experts, in Cardiff and the Wales Office, which will be of lasting benefit as we proceed towards more devolutionary measures. I hope that I have responded to the points made in our short debate. If I have missed anything, I know that my attention will be drawn to it and I will be happy to write to noble Lords. I commend the order to the Grand Committee. Motion agreed to.
