Note: The ‘English votes for English Laws’ procedure does not apply for Clause 8 or for Schedule 2. Although these provisions extend to England and Wales only, they relate to a matter that is reserved, meaning neither the Scottish Parliament, Senedd Cymru, or the Northern Ireland Assembly could legislate in their territories on the same matter.
