Explanatory note

Paragraph 13(1) of Schedule 2 to the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 (“the Act”) makes provision that the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales (“the Commissioner”) must create and maintain a register containing all of the registrable interests of the Commissioner and the Deputy Future Generations Commissioner for Wales (“the Deputy Commissioner”).

Paragraph 13(2)(a) of Schedule 2 to the Act provides the Welsh Ministers with the power, by regulations, to specify what interests are registrable interests for the purposes of paragraphs 13, 14 and 15 of Schedule 2 to the Act.

The Welsh Ministers make these Regulations in reliance upon the power provided by paragraph 13(2)(a) of Schedule 2 to the Act. Regulation 2 introduces the Schedule to the Regulations which specifies the registrable interests of the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner.

A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations.
