BY

THE WELSH GOVERNMENT

TITLE	Government of Wales Act 2006 (Devolved Welsh Authorities) (Amendment) Order 2024
DATE	20 December 2024
BY	Vikki Howells MS, Minister for Further and Higher Education

In October I issued a written statement updating Members on the draft Government of Wales Act 2006 (Devolved Welsh Authorities) (Amendment) Order 2024, which was laid before the Senedd and both Houses of Parliament in May.

The Order has now been approved by both Houses of Parliament and has been made by His Majesty at a meeting of the Privy Council on 6 November 2024.

This statement is being issued during recess to keep Members informed. Should Members wish me to make a further statement or to answer questions on this when the Senedd returns I would be happy to do so.
