Government of Wales Bill

I am glad that the hon. Gentleman said that this is a probing amendment, because if accepted it would mean that every Order in Council would have to be referred to the Supreme Court. Clearly, he does not propose that. Occasionally, it will be necessary to obtain the opinion of the Supreme Court and the Bill provides for that. That is why the clause contains the word ““may”” and I invite the hon. Gentleman to withdraw his amendment.
