Clause 40 - Documents relating to police authorities
Public Audit (Wales) Bill [Lords]
2:30 pm
Mr Hywel Williams (Spokesperson (Disability; Health; Social Security; Work and Pensions); Caernarfon, Plaid Cymru)
I beg to move amendment No. 46, in page 28, line 16, leave out 'may' and insert 'must'.
May I draw the Committee's attention to a matter that is of the utmost seriousness, given that we are debating the Public Audit (Wales) Bill, which concerns efficiency, economy and effectiveness? It cannot have escaped your attention, Mr. Griffiths, that my name has been spelled with an extra ''l'' on the amendment paper, so that, rather than being Hywel, I am miraculously transformed to ''Howeth''. There was obviously profligate use of the alphabet without prior permission. That demands the most immediate investigation on your part, and of course an immediate report to the Secretary of State and the Assembly. The question remains what to do with the extra ''l''. It cannot be ignored, destroyed or removed. I therefore suggest that it be donated to a deserving cause—perhaps to the hon. Member for Leominster (Mr. Wiggin)—so his constituency can become ''Lleominster'' and almost a Llan.
