List of measures of the National Assembly for Wales from 2011

Last updated

This is a list of measures of the National Assembly for Wales passed in 2011. Measures of the National Assembly for Wales were enacted by Senedd Cymru (the Welsh Parliament; or simply the Senedd) under its former name of the National Assembly for Wales, [1] as part of its legislative authority over devolved matters in relation to Wales under the authority of the Government of Wales Act 2006. [2] It has no longer been possible for the Senedd to pass measures since 5 May 2011, when it was conferred with the power to pass acts of Senedd Cymru (then known as acts of the National Assembly for Wales) following a referendum, [3] although a minor exemption was granted to any proposed measures which had been passed by the National Assembly but not yet given royal assent at that date. [4]

All legislation passed by the Senedd is bilingual, with the English and Welsh texts being equally authoritative. [5] Measures are cited by calendar year, in the same fashion as acts of Parliament of the United Kingdom. Each measure passed in a respective year is numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals, following the prefix "nawm" (or, in Welsh, "mccc"). [6]

7 measures of the National Assembly for Wales were passed in 2011.

The Government of Wales Act 2006 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that reformed the then-National Assembly for Wales and allows further powers to be granted to it more easily. The Act creates a system of government with a separate executive drawn from and accountable to the legislature. It is part of a series of laws legislating Welsh devolution.

Citation of United Kingdom legislation includes the systems used for legislation passed by devolved parliaments and assemblies, for secondary legislation, and for prerogative instruments. It is relatively complex both due to the different sources of legislation in the United Kingdom, and because of the different histories of the constituent countries of the United Kingdom.
