6.1 The Committee Chair referred to a letter he had received from the Presiding Officer indicating that, in her opinion, the Bill was within the legislative competence of the Assembly. However, she also pointed out that her decision had been finely balanced in relation to some parts of the Bill. The Chair outlined the parts of the Bill concerned and that the letter would be circulated to Members in due course.
6.2 The Committee agreed that the issues raised by the Presiding Officer would need to be taken into account during the Stage 1 scrutiny process. The Committee’s legal advisers were asked to provide further briefing on the issues raised by the Presiding Officer so that areas for questioning could be developed to help the Committee explore the issues with relevant witnesses.
6.3 The Committee then discussed its approach to Stage 1 scrutiny of the Recovery of Medical Costs for Asbestos Diseases (Wales) Bill.
6.4 The Committee was content with the general approach suggested in the Committee paper but was agreed that an additional question, regarding the National Assembly’s legislative competence, should be added to the consultation letter.
6.5 It was also agreed that representatives of cancer charities, Health Boards, the construction industry and organisations manufacturing asbestos should be considered as additional oral witnesses.
