Elections in relation to which this Schedule applies
46.Paragraph 1 states that this Schedule makes provision about the constituencies for which Members of the Senedd will be elected at a general election held after 6 April 2026. This means the Schedule will apply in relation to a Senedd general election taking place up to one calendar month earlier than the scheduled ordinary general election date of 7 May 2026. This paragraph also states that the Senedd constituencies provided for under this Schedule will remain in place until regulations under section 49J of the 2013 Act (which is a section in Part 3A of that Act, as inserted by Schedule 3 to this Act) take effect, or the constituencies are otherwise changed under any enactment.
