Diolch, Llywydd. The Interim Subordinate Legislation Committee considered both sets of regulations yesterday morning. We subsequently laid our reports yesterday morning to aid this afternoon’s discussion.

Members will be aware that both regulations make amendments to the principal Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) (No.5) (Wales) Regulations 2020. Members will be aware, and will have heard this afternoon from the Minister, that the No.11 amendment regulations moved the whole of Wales to alert level 1 on 7 June.

Our report on the No.11 amendment regulations contains three merits points, and Members who sat through similar debates on coronavirus-related regulations in the fifth Senedd will be familiar with some of these issues.

Our first merits point notes the Welsh Government’s justification for any potential interference with human rights, and we have drawn particular attention to a handful of paragraphs in the explanatory memorandum that accompanies the regulations.

Our second point notes that there has been no formal consultation on these regulations, and again we have drawn attention to a summary explanation in the explanatory memorandum.

Our third merits point notes that the explanatory memorandum makes no reference to an equality impact assessment. As such, we asked the Welsh Government to explain what arrangements it had made to publish a report on equality impact assessments in accordance with the Equality Act 2010 (Statutory Duties) (Wales) Regulations 2011.

In its response, the Welsh Government told us that, following each review period, a summary impact assessment is published. It includes an equality impact assessment as well as covering well-being, children and human’s rights, the economy, and the Welsh language. Now, Welsh Government confirmed that the summary impact assessment for these regulations will be published by the end of this review period on 24 June.

Moving on to the No.5 and No.12 amendment regulations, Members will also be aware that these regulations further amend the principal regulations in relation to organising events. Now, our report contains two merits points, which are the same first two points raised on the previous regulations—that is the Welsh Government’s justification for any potential interference with human rights and the fact that there has been no formal consultation on these regulations. And I leave that with Members now to consider. Diolch, Llywydd.
