Proceeding contribution from Nick Ainger (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
No, to return to the point that I made earlier, section 40 of the Government of Wales Act 1998 already gives similar powers, but these clauses clarify the situation so that there is no confusion. Following advice, we believe that clarification in this form is necessary. The hon. Lady was asking about Ministers’ ability to exercise powers. These are executive functions to be exercised by Ministers and they will be subject to the scrutiny of the Assembly and, certainly, if any funding is involved, to the scrutiny of the Audit Committee.
