"I welcome the commitment made in today's Queen's Speech to deliver a Wales bill which honours in full the commitments made in the St David's Day process.
"It is essential that the Assembly's voice is heard loud and clear in the discussions that will take place over the coming weeks and months.
"I will be meeting with the Secretary of State for Wales shortly when I will be seeking assurances that while we might move quickly, there is ample opportunity to scrutinise any new proposals and consider their impact on Wales.
"The St David's Day announcement signified the shift in the balance of power between Westminster and the Assembly which I had called for and will enable us finally to determine our own affairs. We must be certain that any new reserved powers model does not reduce our ability to legislate in any way and offers us a settlement that lets us legislate with clarity and coherence for the good of Wales".
