Mr Byrne
The hon. Lady will have read our amendment, so she will know that we propose to take politics out of the issue, and to establish an independent commission to set the level of the cap. As has been demonstrated this afternoon, when it is left to politicians, they make a pig’s ear of it.
Jonathan Edwards (Carmarthen East and Dinefwr) (PC)
