Wales-only laws are Acts of the United Kingdom Parliament that only relate to Wales. Each law would then either grant the Assembly power to make delegated legislation or would transfer power to the National Assembly for Wales to make Assembly Measures in certain devolved areas.
Wales-only Laws are part of the contemporary Welsh law powers as they relate to Wales alone, but are not enacted by the Assembly, but by the UK Parliament only.

Famous quotes containing the word laws:
“Whenever there are in any country uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right. The earth is given as a common stock for man to labor and live on.... The small landowners are the most precious part of a state.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
