Well, Llywydd, that wouldn't be my approach. Where we agree with what the UK Government is doing, as we have in huge amounts of what has happened over the recent months, we can simply exercise our powers in a way that is consistent with what is happening elsewhere. There is certainly no need to surrender powers; it's just a matter of how you choose to exercise them.
