Ymateb gan jon bolter | Evidence from jon bolter

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)?

The best candidates are required not a contrived make up of equal genders .

What are your views on the system of enforcement and potential sanctions for non-compliance proposed in the Bill?

Again the most qualified candidates are needed not whether they have tits !

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?

If not enough women fancy the position then this ludicrous proposal is shown to be completely daft .

Are any unintended consequences likely to arise from the Bill?

A national embarrassment if this bill goes through.

What are your views on the Welsh Government’s assessment of the financial and other impacts of the Bill?

The government has no financial acumen and wastes money on a regular basis , as no one there has ever turned over a pound in business . Why will there be a financial impact ? You will just tax us more as usual in a variety of ways .

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?

My view , drop this crazy idea asap

Do you have any views on matters relating to the legislative competence of the Senedd including compatibility with the European Convention on Human Rights?

Forget the European convention and human rights ,

Do you have any views on matters related to the quality of the legislation, or to the constitutional or other implications of the Bill?

Again , my view scrap this bill asap no more members are needed . Waste of money
