Government of Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Government of Wales Bill.
Given the importance that the Secretary of State attached to this issue as a matter of principle, when will we have a statement from the Prime Minister that the other systems of proportional representation in the United Kingdom that the Government have set up will be altered? Does the Secretary of State understand that asking the House to treat something in isolation can be perceived, however great his vehemence, as gerrymandering? We are not prepared to tolerate that. If he wishes to change the system, it should be changed as an issue of principle throughout the country and not for the convenience of the Welsh Labour party.
