Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 June 2025

Debate

Crown Estate (Wales) Bill [HL]

Contribution

I could accept such wording if there was a caveat that, if such views were embodied in a resolution of Senedd Cymru, the commissioners would be legally bound by them. I shall be happy to discuss this further ahead of Report. Incidentally, I shall be happy to have discussions with Labour, Liberal Democrat, Cross-Bench and, yes, Tory colleagues, if they so wish and if they enter into any such informal discussion with an understanding that what we seek is for the benefit of Wales. Amendment 7 is either a probing amendment, which did not seem to be the case when the noble and learned Lord spoke to it, or it is a wrecking amendment, in which case I would urge the Committee to reject it.
