| Whilst I have limited knowledge
of the workings of the Assembly and do not feel able to comment
constructively on the questions proposed I do wish to make the
following comments.
The Assembly came into being with a very small majority and
low voting level and the latest election the poor level of
interest and wish to vote despite additional publicity on
all forms of media was mirrored
This really raises a question about who wants the assembly
to continue and those who are apathetic and do not support
the assembly are unlikely to turn up at the open meeting.
If the Assembly has to remain then it is important that it
has all the powers it needs to assist it to work well and
for the benefit of the population of Wales.
If more funds are needed for it to function then this will
be likely to lead to more disquiet as comments are regularly
heard about how the Assembly costs a lot already.
One concern would be for people to know clearly the differences
between England Scotland and Wales and the impact of these
differences if people move between the countries in the UK.
