Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Edwards (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 May 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Review of Parliamentary Standards Act 2009.


Review of Parliamentary Standards Act 2009

The hon. Gentleman is making a very thoughtful speech. Like many Members in Wales, I have joint offices with Assembly Members and I recognise the hon. Gentleman's point about stress. The stress for staff of dealing with expenses for Westminster is far higher than the stress of dealing with expenses for the devolved Administrations. Does he think IPSA should look at the systems in Scotland and Wales and see whether we could adopt a similar system?
