Commentary on Sections Section 2 – Regulations: procedure
24.This section amends section 77 of the Climate Change Act 2008. Section 77 introduces Schedule 6 and contains provision about the procedure to be applied when regulations are made under the Schedule. Section 2 inserts a new subsection 4(aa) into section 77 with the effect that the first set of regulations to be made by the Welsh Ministers under paragraph 4A of Schedule 6 are subject to the affirmative resolution procedure. This means that the regulations cannot come into force unless a draft of them is laid before, and approved by a resolution of, the National Assembly.
