==Constitutional committee== Whilst not a pact, ahead of the 1997 election Labour Leader Tony Blair and Lib Dem leader Paddy Ashdown set up the ''Labour-Liberal Democrat joint committee on constitutional reform'' to discuss devolution in Wales and Scotland, and led to Prime Minister Tony Blair setting up a joint Lib–Lab [[United Kingdom cabinet committee|cabinet committee]]. In part this led to the Scottish and Welsh alliances noted above. The committee was disbanded by Tony Blair and [[Charles Kennedy]] in September 2001.<ref>{{cite news|title=Lib-Lab Constitutional Reform Committee Disbanded|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/1554194.stm|access-date=29 December 2012|publisher=BBC News|date=2001-09-20}}</ref>
