Further to WQ100023, which Senior Civil Service division made the decision?
Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Minister for Social Justice and Equality | Answered on 27/08/2026
Under the Carltona Principle, actions and decisions made by civil servants are done so on behalf of ministers and ministers are accountable for actions taken by the Welsh Government. It is not the normal practice of the Welsh Government to name individual civil servants associated with particular decisions.
