Transfer of functions in relation to electoral legislationE+W

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

45.—(1) The functions of a Minister of the Crown conferred by or by virtue of the Acts and instruments listed in Schedule 1, so far as those functions are exercisable within devolved competence M1, are exercisable by the Welsh Ministers in accordance with that Schedule instead of by the Minister.

(2) For the purposes of this article—

(a)the exercise of a function of making, confirming or approving subordinate legislation is within devolved competence if the provisions of that subordinate legislation would be within the legislative competence of the Assembly if they were included in an Act of the Assembly; and

(b)the exercise of any other function (or the exercise of any other function in any way) is within devolved competence so far as a provision conferring that function (or conferring it so as to be exercisable in that way) would be within the legislative competence of the Assembly if it were included in an Act of the Assembly.

(3) So far as may be necessary for the purposes of, or in consequence of, the exercise of a function transferred to the Welsh Ministers by this article and Schedule 1, any enactments passed before the coming into force of this article, any instrument made under those enactments, and any other document, are to be read as if a reference to a Minister of the Crown (however described) was a reference to the Welsh Ministers.
