That this House notes the Government's commitment to a referendum on UK membership of the EU; recognises the importance of allowing the public time fully to consider the issues and implications surrounding the EU referendum debate; further recognises the importance of ensuring focused and adequate debate on the issues facing the National Assembly and the Welsh Government prior to the election in May 2016; and calls on the Government to ensure that the EU referendum is not held on the same day, nor in the run up to, the National Assembly for Wales election in May 2016.
