Welsh Statutory Instruments are Statutory Instruments relating specifically to Wales. They form part of the same numbering sequence as UK Statutory Instruments but are distinguished within that sequence by a subsidiary number in brackets after the S.I. number (e.g. “(W. 22)”). They may be made under authority contained either in Acts of the UK Parliament or in Measures of the National Assembly for Wales.
Welsh Statutory Instruments are published in both the English and Welsh languages (although the Welsh versions are not carried on SLD at present).
Welsh Statutory Instruments are held on SLD but are not revised.
