In
Wales, a Legislative Competency Order or LCO (pronounced 'elco'
[1]) is a piece of constitutional legislation in the form of an Order In Council. It transfers legislative authority to the National Assembly for Wales. Each LCO adds a matter to a field which is stated in the Government of Wales Act 2006. Each matter is then giving the
Welsh Assembly Government permission to pass legislation known as an
Assembly Measure.
