I understand the hon. Gentleman’s point, but there may well be a need for the Assembly to take advantage of the permission, given by this place, to legislate not just in secondary legislation but, in effect, through its Measures system. I would be surprised—it would be illogical and, possibly, irresponsible—if those Standing Orders did not allow for emergency legislation to be enacted by the Assembly.
