SCECLB13 Individual
What are your views on the general principles of the Bill and
the need for legislation to deliver the Welsh Government’s
stated policy objective (to make the Senedd a more effective
legislature by ensuring it is broadly representative of the gender
make-up of the population)?
I am in complete disagreement with the Bill or
any of its objectives.
What are your views on the system of enforcement and potential
sanctions for non-compliance proposed in the Bill?
I am against the Bill and its objectives which
are contrary to the interests of the people of Wales.
Are there any potential barriers to the implementation of the
Bill’s provisions? If so, what are they, and are they
adequately taken into account in the Bill and the accompanying
Explanatory Memorandum and Regulatory Impact Assessment?
The will of the people and your disregard for
it. Put your Bill to a referendum which you will lose.
Are any unintended consequences likely to arise from the
Bill?
Yes. The proposals are based on gender are
therefore discriminate against the person's best suited for the
role. Gender is not a qualification.
What are your views on the Welsh Government’s assessment
of the financial and other impacts of the Bill?
It is a complete waste of taxpayer's money
which always seems to be spent on the Senedd, not services which
remain underfunded
What are your views on the balance between the information
contained on the face of the Bill and what is left to subordinate
legislation? Are the powers for Welsh Ministers to make subordinate
legislation appropriate?
The Bill is a power- grabbing exercise for the
benefit of Welsh Labour who already have a surfeit of power without
recourse to any system of removal.
Do you have any views on matters relating to the legislative
competence of the Senedd including compatibility with the European
Convention on Human Rights?
The imposition of the 20mph limit is just one
example of the legislative incompetence of the Senedd and their
disregard for the voters of Wales.
Do you have any views on matters related to the quality of the
legislation, or to the constitutional or other implications of the
Bill?
The Bill needs putting to a referendum to
avoid riding rough-shod over the views of the people of Wales. It
needs to be an open process. Even finding this feedback required
significant unearthing.
Are there any other issues that you would like to raise about
the Bill and the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum or any related
matters?
A referendum is required. We do not live in a
totalitarian state. Or do we?
Anything else?
