Mr. D. E. Thomas
asked the Secretary of State for Wales what is his estimate of the projected total cost of setting up a Welsh Assembly as proposed in the Government's White Paper "Democracy and Devolution".
Mr. Rowlands
The total cost of setting up a Welsh Assembly will depend on the range and nature of its functions and a number of other factors. No meaningful estimate is possible at this stage.
