It is important that we have parliamentary democracy and that things are properly scrutinised. This piece of legislation, of course, is being scrutinised by the UK Parliament, in which there are 40 Members sent from Wales. But I did not hear, at any point, while we were members of the European Union, any complaint or gripe about the fact that you were not able to scrutinise much of the Commission's law making, which was impacting on the people of Wales. Why is it that you have a different attitude now, even though the UK Parliament is able to scrutinise matters?
