Government of Wales Bill

I will not rise to that accusation. All I am saying is that the issue before the people of Wales should be the question on the ballot paper—do they wish to proceed to primary powers for the Assembly or not? That will undoubtedly be controversial—I would be surprised if it were unanimous. That is the point. In respect of amendment No. 194 tabled by the hon. Member for Chesham and Amersham, the problem with the procedure that she suggests is that it could be a recipe for endless ping-pong if the House of Lords amended an Order in Council, which would be an unusual procedure—half of the argument of the hon. Member for Beaconsfield (Mr. Grieve) was, quite properly, that Orders in Council are not amendable—or if the House of Commons amended it and then the Assembly amended it. The truth is that we can all agree with the procedure laid down in the 2000 Act, and that is exactly what the Bill does. I ask the hon. Member for Carmarthen, East and Dinefwr to withdraw the amendment.
