The Welsh Ministers (Transfer of Functions) (Railways) Order 2018
This Order provides for certain functions of the Secretary of State under the Railways Act 1993 and the Railways Act 2005 to be transferred from the Secretary of State to the Welsh Ministers so far as those functions are exercisable in relation to Wales, and for certain other functions of the Secretary of State under those Acts, so far as exercisable in relation to Wales, to be exercisable concurrently by the Welsh Ministers and the Secretary of State. It does so by making amendments to those Acts: see article 2 and the Schedule. In the case of the amendment made by paragraph 25 of the Schedule to section 76(6)(a) of the Railways Act 1993, it is article 3 of the Order that provides for the particular function under that section to be exercised concurrently only so far as it is exercisable in relation to Wales.
