Proceeding contribution from Lord Elystan-Morgan (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.

Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill

The noble Baroness is quite right. The matter that was put before the Welsh Assembly under the original provisions of the Bill was a very narrow one: whether the Welsh Assembly—in one way or another; I am not sure whether it was a ministerial or a plenary appointment, but it does not really matter—should select one person from a list, if I remember rightly, of seven different groups which are set out in the Bill. The Welsh Assembly said, ““We so fundamentally disapprove of the Bill that we will not do that””. So it was a very narrow issue.
