MONMOUTHSHIRE MP David Davies has voiced concern that the Scottish referendum could hand more power to the Welsh Assembly.
Mr Davies, chairman of the Welsh Affairs Select Committee, said: “It would’ve been a tragedy had [Scotland] left.”
“However the result still leaves the Barnett formula.”
“Under this formula Scotland gets extra money but Wales gets less than it should. The time has come to give Wales its fair share.”
“Scotland will get extra powers and the Welsh Assembly Government are demanding the same.”
Mr Davies says it would be wrong to give Wales more powers without a vote.
He added that devolution was ‘badly thought-out’ and that successive governments have been handing over powers in an ad hoc fashion without any thought to England.
