[edit] Tidy up/Rewrite

I found parts of this page difficult to read, and I've tried to make them easier by some rewriting. If I've introduced an error while I was doing this, please correct me. My knowledge of the subject matter is quite limited. Thanks. --JohnAldis 14:53, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Where did you find difficulty, I will try and look into this for you? I do apologise, I have been away.Amlder20 13:48, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Devolved areas

So what ARE the devolved areas of legislation?!

The devolved areas are mentioned in the article if you read, it contains all the fields in section 5 of the Government of Wales Act. We can't put all the matters on here too because it would clutter up the whole article to the point that it would be a mess. Each devolved area will have a link attached soon.

[edit] Jurisdiction

Maybe it should also be mentioned that the "England and Wales" entity could cease to exist if areas like Criminal law are devolved to the National Assembly. This means also that some areas of the Laws in Wales Acts must be repealed because they unify Wales into one jurisdiction with England. In effect if Wales can have it's own Acts of Assembly, then it means we have officially started our own legal system which means a seperate Jurisdiction from England, following though the English Common Law! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.11.221.164 (talk) 12:30, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
