Proceeding contribution from Lord Murphy of Torfaen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Comprehensive Spending Review.


Comprehensive Spending Review

It is a question of uncertainty. An announcement is made one week, and then another is made the next week. We have the passport office in Newport closing, but the Secretary of State says that she has helped to save some jobs there, so the situation changes all the time. By the way, in First Minister’s questions in the Welsh Assembly yesterday, the First Minister indicated that he has not yet had a reply from the Secretary of State’s colleague. I urge her to talk to her colleague to ensure that a proper response is given to the First Minister for Wales.
