Section 19 – Orders and regulations
74.This section contains general provisions about regulations and orders made under the Measure.
75.Subsection (1) provides that where the Welsh Ministers are empowered by the Measure to make orders or regulations, these are to be made by statutory instrument. Subsection (2) provides that any power to make regulations or orders, given to the Welsh Ministers under this Measure, includes the power to make different provisions for different cases or classes of cases, different areas, different persons or descriptions of person, and different purposes. It also enables orders or regulations to make different provisions apply at different times and to make provisions that apply generally or in relation to specific cases. Subsection (2) also enables the Welsh Ministers to make incidental, supplementary, consequential, transitory, transitional or saving provision, as the Welsh Ministers think fit.
76.Under subsection (3), a provision that may be made by order under this Measure may be made by regulations. Under subsection (4), a provision that may be made by regulations under this Measure may be made by order. This enables various provisions under the Measure to be combined in a single statutory instrument, rather than two separate ones.
