- Responsibility for distinct policy work streams within the Bill, including advising and responding to questions from legal advisers and drafting lawyers about those policy areas;
- Working with the Head of Branch to develop and implement the overall policy direction for the Bill

- Working with Transport for Wales to support their implementation of the Bill’s policy
