27 Apr 2006 : Column 806
Schedule 2
Lady Hermon: I am sure that the Committee will be delighted to know that it is not my intention to move amendment No. 28.
Motion made, and Question proposed, That the schedule be the Second schedule to the Bill:—
Lembit Öpik: I have one question: to clarify what the Minister said before about the Assembly's ability to modify legislation—
Mr. Lidington: That is in schedule 3.
Lembit Öpik: I think that it is to do with schedule 3. I am sorry, Mrs. Heal, to detain the Committee, and I thank the hon. Member for Aylesbury (Mr. Lidington) for putting me right.
Schedule 2 agreed to.
27 Apr 2006 : Column 807
Schedule 3
Motion made, and Question proposed, That the schedule be the Third schedule to the Bill:—
Lembit Öpik: I have been thrown into confusion, because I believe that my question relates to schedule 2 after all—[Interruption.]
The First Deputy Chairman: Order. I could not hear what the hon. Gentleman was saying.
Lembit Öpik: The point still stands, despite the sneaky Tory trick to get me confused. I want the Minister to clarify one important point. In fairness, thanks to the hon. Member for Aylesbury (Mr. Lidington), who did some considerable research into the matter, our understanding is that that the reconstituted Assembly would be entitled to modify or repeal any legislation that has been passed, including during suspension. I raise that matter because of a previous suggestion that the Assembly could not alter, modify or repeal legislation that has been passed by Order in Council during suspension. Our understanding—I believe that it is that of the hon. Member for Aylesbury—is that the Assembly is not fettered in that way. It is free to modify any of that legislation. That is important because it is extremely clear to me that we need clarity in the debate and on the record in Hansard, so that there can be no dispute about this matter when the Assembly seeks to modify legislation.
