In the next phase of DRS implementation, we will be finalising the legislation, taking necessary steps to ensure it will work in practice. The legislation then needs to go through the necessary clearances, before it can be laid in UK Parliament and the Welsh Senedd. We are aiming to have the regulations complete by the end of 2023.
