Government of Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Government of Wales Bill.

The amendment says 21 days, and we do not think we can achieve that administratively in such a tight timetable, but we do respect the point that a change to electoral arrangements in the UK is sought—
