Amendment 2. Julie James (Swansea West)

Delete all after point 2 and replace with:

3. Agrees that this positive outcome to the negotiations with the UK Government secures the National Assembly’s powers over devolved policies in the changing circumstances created by Brexit and entrenches the Sewel convention, based on a default position that changes to the Assembly’s competences require the Assembly’s consent.

4. Welcomes the fact that any UK wide frameworks to replace the current EU frameworks will be freely negotiated between the governments and will be subject to the Sewel convention; and that while these frameworks are being negotiated, no government, including the UK Government in respect of England, will be able to introduce legislation which departs from the status quo.

5. Notes further that the National Assembly will have the opportunity for a meaningful vote on the agreement when it considers the Legislative Consent Motion to be brought forward by the Welsh Government.
