Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 6:10 pm on 21 March 2018.
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.
