Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Crickhowell (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 11 November 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Wales Bill.

The difficulty about that proposition is that the bulk of the money is still going to come to Wales from grants voted for in the Parliament at Westminster. Indeed, every change in that alters the position of grants going to Scotland. It is very difficult. If you want to start with the argument that you must have votes at 16 for everyone voting for the money, then you have decided that it has to go to the Westminster Parliament as well. Until that happens, you really cannot carry that argument too far.
