Government of Wales Bill

My Lords, there is nothing to prevent a draft Order in Council under Clause 94 being considered immediately after a draft Order in Council under Clause 58, provided that the latter meant that Welsh Ministers, the First Minister or Counsel General could exercise the function in the new field. The draft Order in Council under Clause 94 could add the field to Schedule 5 and the Assembly can seek to add a matter or additional matters relating to that field. There is no pre-legislative scrutiny of orders under Section 22 of the Government of Wales Act and Clause 58 is the equivalent of that section. I hope that this explanation satisfies the noble Lord.
