Proceeding contribution from Lord Murphy of Torfaen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 May 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Constitutional Reform (Wales).


Constitutional Reform (Wales)

The Minister quotes Professor Wyn Jones all the time, but he fails to remember that Speaker's Conference after Speaker's Conference indicated that there were special circumstances to ensure proper representation for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom Parliament. Why does he think, for example, that there are separate boundary commissions for Scotland and Wales? They are separate countries in separate circumstances. I think that the professor is on his own on this one.
