Diolch, Llywydd. Amendment 7 is a technical amendment that follows on from the amendment made to the Bill at Stage 2 that introduced a review and sunset provision at section 12. Amendment 7 prevents the urgent procedure from applying in relation to regulations made under section 12, that is, regulations to extend the period that the power to make provision corresponding to EU law after exit day remains in effect. 

I urge Members to agree amendment 7 as it will ensure that the use of regulations made under section 12 are subject to an appropriate level of Assembly scrutiny.

There are no indications that anyone wants to speak on this amendment, so I take it that the Member doesn't want to reply to the debate.

The question therefore is that amendment 7 be agreed to. Does any Member object? [Objection.] We'll proceed to an electronic vote. Open the vote. Close the vote. In favour 47, six abstentions, none against. Therefore, the amendment is agreed.

In accordance with Standing Order 26.50A, I can confirm that, in my view, the provisions of the Law Derived from the European Union (Wales) Bill do not relate to a protected subject matter. I call on the leader of the house to signify any required consent under Standing Order 26.67—Julie James.
