Commentary on Sections Part 2 – Publication Etc. of Welsh Legislation Section 37R – Publication of Welsh statutory instruments subject to Senedd confirmation procedure
96.When subordinate legislation is subject to the Senedd confirmation procedure (for which see section 37D and paragraphs 28 to 36 above), section 37R requires the responsible authority to notify the King’s Printer for Wales if the subordinate legislation has been confirmed by the Senedd or has ceased to have effect (if not confirmed). This will enable the King’s Printer for Wales to include information regarding the confirmation with the published instrument. Where an instrument has not been confirmed by the Senedd, section 37E(4)(c) requires the responsible authority to revoke the subordinate legislation. In practice this revocation will be recorded against the online version of the published instrument.
