Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Wigley (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 November 2016. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Wales Bill.

Will the Minister address my point that there is devolution of a different kind going on with youth justice being devolved to areas such as Manchester, yet they are not having a totally separate Home Office or judicial structure of their own? In these circumstances, and given the fact that the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats, a lot of Cross-Benchers and ourselves support this movement and the Silk commission’s recommendation, will he look at this matter between now and Report to see whether there is room for greater devolution, at least of large parts of this, to the Assembly in order to get a coherent service in Wales?
