The Constitutional Affairs Committee ( formerly the Subordinate Legislation Committee) considered the technical aspects of all statutory instruments or draft statutory instruments made by the Welsh Ministers and to report on whether the Assembly should pay special attention to the instruments or draft on any of the grounds set out in Standing Order 15.2. The Committee could also undertake scrutiny of Assembly Measures without questioning the policy itself. Additionally, the Committee could also report on the matters set out in Standing Order 15.3 or 15.6.

Prior to the establishment of the permanent Legislatiion Committees, ad hoc Legislation Committees were established for the purpose of conducting detailed consideration of a specific legislative proposal (either a Legislative Competence Order or an Assembly Measure). Once an ad hoc Legislation Committee concluded its consideration of a Legislative Competence Order or an Assembly Measure, it ceased to exist.
