Debate
Crown Estate Bill [HL]Contribution
Today I ask the Minister a question of principle. Now that we have two Labour Governments—one in Cardiff and one in London—which one is responsible for making decisions about the use of Wales’s natural resources, especially with such a strong statement having been made in the Welsh Government’s programme for government? Does he believe that it should be the UK Government or the Welsh Government who make the decisions about Wales’s natural resources? Does he believe that it is fair that Scotland has vastly greater powers than Wales in this area? I ask the House to show support for Wales today and support the devolution of the Crown Estate to Wales by backing this amendment.
