Schedule 4 - Regulations: Restrictions on Powers of Devolved Authorities Requirement for joint exercise where it would otherwise be required
Paragraph 4 provides for each of the devolved authorities that that no regulations may be made by the devolved authority acting alone where they contain provision which relates to a matter where a power to make subordinate legislation other than using the powers in this Act is exercisable by a devolved authority acting jointly with a Minister of the Crown, unless provision is made jointly to that extent. Paragraph 4(4) sets out that sub-paragraphs (1), (2) or (3) do not apply if the provision could be contained in –
an Act of the Scottish Parliament, Senedd Cymru or of the Northern Ireland Assembly where consent from a Minister of the Crown is not required, or
different subordinate legislation made other than by using the powers in this Act by any of the devolved authorities where they are acting alone.
