EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Government of Wales Act 2006 (Designation of Receipts) Order 2007 ( S.I. 2007/848) ("the principal Order") specifies receipts of the Welsh Ministers and of the National Assembly for Wales Commission which are designated receipts for the purposes of section 120 of the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c.32)("the Act"). Under section 120(4) of the Act the Welsh Ministers must pay to the Secretary of State sums equal to the amount of those receipts.

This Order amends the principal Order. Article 2 has the effect of specifying any settlement payment and any further payment made to Welsh Ministers under section 132 or 133 of the Housing (Wales) Act 2014 as designated receipts for the purposes of section 120 of the Act.

An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument because no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
