Although section 21(2A) of the National Assistance Act 1948 extends to Wales, the Secretary of State does not have power to make regulations under that section in respect of Wales, see article 2 of and Schedule 1 to the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672), which transfers all the functions of the Secretary of State under the 1948 Act, so far as they are exercisable in relation to Wales, to the National Assembly for Wales. (As respects Scotland, section 21 of the 1948 Act was repealed, in so far as it extended to Scotland, by section 95(2) of, and Schedule 9 to, the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 (c. 49)).
