That's irrelevant. The original point at issue here was the question of MPs from Scotland, Wales etc. having the right to routinely vote on English matters when English MPs do not routinely enjoy that same right in those places. That's very different from the power the UK GOVERNMENT in Westminster at any given time has to control what the WA gets up to.
