Cabinet Office written question – answered at on 6 June 2018.
The Devolution Guidance Note for Wales was updated to take account of the new reserved powers model introduced by the Wales Act 2017, which came into effect on 1 April 2018. The revised guidance was published on 20 April 2018.
This guidance describes the devolution settlement as it currently has effect, and it is under constant review in order to reflect any changes. Leaving the EU will see considerable additional decision-making powers flow to the National Assembly for Wales and so we will need to update the guidance in due course to reflect these new powers
At the last session of the Joint Ministerial Committee (Plenary), Ministers agreed to review the current intergovernmental structures in light of the UK's exit from the EU to ensure they are fit for purpose. It is important that the Devolution Guidance Notes are also updated to reflect any further changes agreed as a result of this process.
