Wales Bill

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

My Lords, I recall that, particularly pre-devolution, we had Ministers who were responsible for different parts of the United

Kingdom and who had to spend an awful lot of time not being in London. If there are challenges from being in both assemblies, that is a matter for the Members. Certainly, at times Members have managed to achieve that. Let us not forget that when we talk about a dual mandate, we are referring only to the House of Commons. There are Members of this Chamber who have a dual mandate, including one who is present at the moment.
