leave out from 'House' to end and add 'notes that the Right honourable Member for Cardiff South and Penarth has consistently stated that he will not take a pay increase as a result of being elected as a Member of the National Assembly for Wales and First Secretary, and that he will stand down as Secretary of State for Wales at the first appropriate stage after overseeing the transfer of powers to the new assembly; and deplores attempts to misconstrue the facts for blatant party political purposes.'.
