Correspondence from the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution regarding the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill Minutes: Business Committee considered a letter regarding the likely late laying of a further supplementary Legislative Consent Memoranda on the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill and the lack of scrutiny time that this will afford to Senedd committees. Concerns were raised over the approach taken by the Government in this case to delay laying an SLCM on a number of amendments made at Westminster several weeks previously. The Trefnydd indicated that consideration would be given to
whether it would be possible to move the debate on this LCM from 14 March to a
later date in order to allow for additional time for scrutiny, or to extend the
timing for the debate to 45 minutes if this is not possible. |
