New Clause 1 - Commissioner's annual report
Children's Commissioner for Wales Bill
12:30 pm
Mr Elfyn Llwyd (Meirionnydd Nant Conwy, Plaid Cymru)
This is an example of rather muddled thinking. The commissioner has been set up by the National Assembly for Wales and is answerable to that Assembly. His over-arching remit is devolved matters, so how on earth can this House second-guess whether he or she did the right thing, when it has no responsibility for devolved matters? That is the first muddle.
