This page provides links to the full text of all Statutory Instruments made by the Welsh Assembly Government and formerly the National Assembly for Wales under powers granted by the Government of Wales Acts 1998 and 2006. Although numbered in the same Statutory Instrument series, non-print/unpublished Statutory Instruments which are generally of local application are not published on this website. The aim is to publish these documents on this website simultaneously with their

There does not even seem to be the same emphasis on moving to detached youth work which exists in England, which often reflects the pressure to target those at risk of social exclusion. There is even the chance that legislation will provide youth work with a firm statutory base, a goal long sought after in England but proving elusive.

Will China change Wikipedia or will Wikipedia change China? Or will they both change each other?
