Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 15 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Coinage (Measurement) Bill.
Coinage (Measurement) Bill
I do not know about that. I have never had any hesitation about the Welsh leek, nor the Welsh daffodil, which is somewhat prettier and has a less pungent and unattractive smell. I hear what the noble Baroness says; I merely indicate that I have not seen an ordinary coin in circulation which reflects the Welsh dragon, although the Welsh dragon is an important symbol of Wales. I am surprised that the Royal Mint has not represented that dimension.
