Part 2: Legislative and executive competence: further provision Chapter 10: Road transport Section 27: Bus service registration and Traffic Commissioners
This section transfers the executive competence for the functions contained in sections 6, 6A, 6B and 7 of the Transport Act 1985 to the Welsh Ministers (in so far as those functions are exercised in relation to Wales).
	In consequence of the devolution of bus route registration this section also amends section 4C of the Public Passenger Vehicles Act 1981 so that the senior traffic commissioner’s power to give guidance or general directions to other traffic commissioners does not apply in relation to devolved Welsh matters. This reflects the situation already existing in Scotland where the senior traffic commissioner cannot give guidance or directions in relation to devolved Scottish matters.
