Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.
Welsh Affairs
I am very happy to make the comparison with other parts of the United Kingdom. As I shall describe later, if we were to examine Wales's performance now compared with what happened during the recessions of the 1980s and 1990s under the previous Conservative Government, when the recessions were not nearly as bad as this recession either within the UK or across the globe, we would find that we have done far better on employment and unemployment.
