Sections 8 to 10: Public Transport Users’ Committee for Wales.
26.Section 8 provides the Assembly with the power to establish, by order, a Committee to consider and make recommendations to the Assembly on any matter relating to public passenger transport services or facilities to, from and within Wales. The Assembly, when making such an order, would be able to decide on matters such as the membership and the ordering of the proceedings of the Committee and on how it is to be staffed and accommodated and to include the necessary provisions relating to these matters in the order (which would be subject to the Assembly’s normal procedures for making subordinate legislation).
27.Section 9 sets out the functions of the Committee (as described in the previous paragraph) and permits the Assembly, by order, to amend those functions. This may include conferring further functions on the Committee but only if they relate to public passenger transport services or facilities to, from or within Wales.
28.Section 10 enables the Assembly to give directions and guidance to the Committee as to how it is to discharge its functions.
