(1)As soon as is reasonably practicable after the beginning of each session of Parliament, the Secretary of State for Wales must undertake with the Assembly such consultation about the UK Government’s legislative programme for the session as appears to the Secretary of State to be appropriate.
(2)The consultation in relation to the UK Government’s legislative programme for a session must include participating in proceedings of the Assembly relating to it on at least one occasion.
(3)For this purpose the UK Government’s legislative programme for a session of Parliament consists of the bills which, at the beginning of the session, are intended to be introduced into either House of Parliament during the session by a Minister of the Crown.
(4)If, at any time after the beginning of a session of Parliament, it is decided that a bill should be introduced into either House of Parliament during the session by a Minister of the Crown and no consultation about the bill has been undertaken under subsection (1), the Secretary of State for Wales must undertake with the Assembly such consultation about the bill as appears to the Secretary of State to be appropriate.
