Wales Bill

Debate between Alun Cairns and Baroness Laing of Elderslie

Monday 31st March 2014 Commons Chamber

[Hon. Members]

It’s not in the Bill.

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

Order. Hon. Gentlemen must not shout from a sedentary position. If the hon. Member for Vale of Glamorgan (Alun Cairns) is not in order, I will tell him that he is not in order. I am sure that he will remain in order.

[Alun Cairns]

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I will do everything I can to remain in order. I want to refer briefly to a point made by my hon. Friend, who was criticised by Opposition Members. It related to a letter from the chief medical officer in England to her counterpart in Wales on the powers of devolution in Wales, seeking an investigation. How could that ever be interpreted as an attack on Wales, when it was from one clinician to another?

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for giving way.—[Laughter.]

Order. The hon. Gentleman is making a brief intervention, and he must be heard.
