# Legislation (Wales) Act 2019, Section 37F: Other Welsh statutory instruments to be laid before Senedd Cymru


(1) This section applies where an enactment conferring a power to make subordinate legislation by Welsh statutory instrument does not provide that the legislation is subject to—
(a) the Senedd approval procedure,
(b) the Senedd confirmation procedure, or
(c) the Senedd annulment procedure.
(2) But it does not apply where the subordinate legislation is—
(a) made by Welsh statutory instrument classified by the responsible authority as a local instrument,
(b) subject to special Senedd procedure, or
(c) made under an enactment specified by the Welsh Ministers by regulations.
(3) The Welsh statutory instrument containing the subordinate legislation must be laid before Senedd Cymru as soon as practicable after the subordinate legislation is made; and subsection (4) applies if the instrument is not laid before the subordinate legislation comes into force.
(4) If this subsection applies, the responsible authority must explain to the Presiding Officer why the Welsh statutory instrument was not laid before the subordinate legislation contained in it came into force.
(5) The explanation to the Presiding Officer must be given in writing as soon as practicable after the instrument is laid before the Senedd.
(6) In sub-section (2)(b), “special Senedd procedure” means the procedure specified in the standing orders of Senedd Cymru for subordinate legislation that is subject to special Senedd procedure.
