Each of those Orders brought into force in relation to England the repeal by the Commons Act 2006 of (among other provisions) parts of section 13, subject to the savings provisions stated therein. The powers of the Welsh Ministers under section 13 are limited by the Commons Act 2006 (Commencement No. 1, Transitional Provisions and Savings) (Wales) Order 2007 (S.I. 2007/2386, W.197, C.88), which brought into force in relation to Wales the repeal of parts of section 13, subject to the savings provisions stated therein."
